One of the most important Dota 2 tournaments will be held in Lima, Peru, and ticket sales for the first phase began on January 13. This began at 2 p.m. (GMT-5), but the tickets were sold in less than 10 minutes.

This was made known through a tweet by the executive director of 4D Esports, the company that organizes the Lima Major 2023.

“And 9 minutes after opening the first batch of tickets for Lima Major, we are Sold Out! Stay put in case tickets get sent back because people have 10 minutes to pay, but if you can’t get your tickets now, we will launch the second batch next Friday. SA community, you are amazing!”

The Lima Major 2023

The Lima Major 2023 is one of the three most important official Dota 2 competitions of the year. There is no doubt that the Dota community of this country deserves it, as they have been the leading representatives of South America at the highest competitive level of this esports.

There is no doubt that this event promises to be the one that positions Peru and, consequently, the SA region at a much higher level. And there is no doubt that proof of this has been the first stage of ticket sales.

As we mentioned earlier, phase 1 of the ticket sales process began on Friday, January 13, 2023, and the plan was to last until next January 19. This was it not for the fact that all available tickets for the event sold out within minutes.

The organizers of the event, 4D Esports, announced that the sale of these tickets for The Lima Major 2023 for Arena 1 would consist of 4 phases. Ticket prices were to increase as these phases progressed.

Just a few minutes after this publication, GLSwadow, the CEO of 4D Esports, said:

“Almost 12K people were waiting to buy the Lima Major tickets jesus christ!”

Five minutes later, he re-posted another Tweet that read:

“Now is almost 20k people trying to buy a ticket to the Lima Major. SA be wilding right now”

It is not known exactly how many tickets have been sold

While it is true that there is still no exact information about how many tickets were sold in the first phase. The fact that it was sold out so quickly shows the interest of the Peruvian community in Dota 2.

Likewise, different resellers (who never missed any significant event) were detected, who took advantage of the event to sell their tickets at exorbitant prices. Well, we can already see them on different platforms.

I didn’t have the opportunity to buy tickets

Don’t be alarmed if you cannot buy tickets in the first phase! You still have a chance to attend this great event. As mentioned above, tickets will be sold in four phases. In addition, VIP tickets will always be available, but you should remember that they will be a bit more expensive.
