BLAST host destinations process underway for 2024 and beyond
Esports entertainment company BLAST has kicked off its formal destination selection process ahead of an exciting calendar of major esports events in 2024 and beyond.
Running from July 2023, BLAST will begin working with interested parties to find suitable locations and partners befitting of a number of exciting event opportunities across their global tournament circuits in a variety of games in 2024.
BLAST has a strong track record of delivering world-class esports arena events that benefit the host destinations, economy and local partners. The tournament organiser has visited a number of other iconic locations in recent years, from London to Copenhagen, Washington, D.C. to Sao Paulo and Madrid to Lisbon – with the main aim of uniting travelling and local fans around the globe through a shared love of esports.
2024 looks to be another exciting year for BLAST’s global arena events, with over five current hosting opportunities of various scales across different events and titles – including BLAST Premier, the leading tier one Counter-Strike tournament series, and BLAST R6, an exciting global circuit for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege with a passionate fanbase.
James Woollard, Head of Commercial Solutions at BLAST, said, “BLAST has built a reputation of delivering world class arena events that produce tangible impacts for the host destination and exciting experiences for fans. Hosts have benefited from economic impacts, esports’ truly global and passionate fanbase, increased international exposure, and premium content and broadcast exposure showcasing the host destination to tens of millions of viewers. With 2024 on the horizon, which is shaping out to be one of our biggest and best years yet, we are looking for further opportunities to create incredible events at leading locations around the world.
“These events will help position host destinations as tech hubs, while providing wider socio-economic benefits, including educational programmes, festival opportunities and commercial partnerships. With thousands of fans expected in-arena, including over 60% on average from outside of the host city, and economic impacts of over €22m for the host economy at previous BLAST events, we are looking forward to working with host city destinations to bring these benefits to their locations while creating engaging esports experiences for fans.”

Vegangster Gives Operators Real-Time Jackpot Control and a New Revenue Stream with Sharedluck’s JackpotX
Platform provider Vegangster has completed the integration of JackpotX, a flexible jackpot engine developed by Sharedluck, giving operators a new way to run scalable jackpot campaigns across brands and game catalogues. The integration focuses on player-contribution jackpots, creating an additional revenue stream for operators.
JackpotX provides more granular control than traditional jackpot tools. Operators can configure several jackpot tiers, define custom triggers, and adjust campaign parameters in real time without downtime. This makes it easier to launch targeted campaigns quickly and align jackpots with specific retention or promotional objectives.
With the integration, Vegangster clients can manage jackpots directly inside their existing back office. Campaigns can be linked to selected brands, game groups, or specific player cohorts, with real-time performance insights available through Sharedluck’s dashboards. This helps teams monitor engagement, track contribution levels, and optimise campaigns while they are Running.
For players, jackpot values update in real time across all touchpoints, including lobby displays, game interfaces, and promotional banners, creating visible momentum as prizes grow. This transparency drives catalogue exploration and extends session time, giving operators a practical tool for supporting both short-term promotional bursts and longer-term engagement Strategies.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, said:
“Jackpots remain one of the clearest levers for engagement in online casinos. Sharedluck built an engine that offers operators the level of precision and flexibility they expect from modern tools. With JackpotX inside Vegangster, teams can run customised jackpot campaigns at the speed their operations require.”
The partnership brings Sharedluck’s jackpot engine directly into Vegangster’s ecosystem, giving operators a straightforward way to deploy contribution-based jackpots and track performance through real-time analytics.
Chris Scicluna, Co-Founder at Sharedluck, said:
“We are excited to bring JackpotX to Vegangster operators. In successful campaigns, we have seen higher retention, longer session times, stronger conversion from casual to regular play, and clear uplift in VIP-focused promotions. We look forward to seeing Vegangster clients achieve similar results.”
The integration is now available for all Vegangster operators. Existing clients can enable JackpotX through their account manager, with configuration handled inside the Vegangster back office and supported by Sharedluck’s analytics dashboards. New operators can access the module during onboarding as part of their standard setup process.
Operators can get a closer look at JackpotX at ICE Barcelona, Fira Barcelona Gran Via, 19–21 January 2026, with live demos available at stand 1E20.
