PGL Major Stockholm 2021: Schedule and broadcasts of matches

The first CS:GO Major in two years is close. PGL Major Stockholm 2021 marks a return to the best in Counter-Strike, with 24 teams from around the world vying for a $2 million prize pool.

Since Astralis became a four-time champion at the Berlin Major 2019, a lot has changed in Counter-Strike. New dynasties arose and established dynasties fell, and the world order was changing.

Now all of this will be put to the test at PGL Major Stockholm 2021. The best rosters in the world will come to Sweden ⁠—nearly 10 years after the country hosted the first CS:GO Major in 2013⁠—to battle it out for the $1 million grand prize and a total prize pool of $2 million.

Distribution of the prize fund

  • 1st place - $1;
  • 2nd place - $300;
  • 3rd and 4th places - $140;

  • 9th-16th places - $17.

Plus, Major participants will receive 50% of sticker sales in the CS:GO client.
