The main part of the Black and Red eSports fan fest is the EA FC 24 2v2 tournament. 32 teams, with 64 players, will face each other. The tournament will be played in the 95 kick-off mode. The form of the match will be determined for each game randomly to create plenty of surprises. Participants can look forward to playing in match modes such as "no rules", "surprise ball" or "top dog".
The best teams in the tournament will receive great prizes including branded PS5 controllers in BKK design or the new #B04eSports shirt.
Away from the tournament, there are also numerous entertainment possibilities for visitors including a tombola with attractive prizes or an eSports health check-up run by Wuppertal University in cooperation with the BERGISCHE KRANKENKASSE. Another highlight is the reaction speed wall.
Of course, participants in the tournaments will be provided with snacks and drinks. Visitors to the fan fest will have access to water and can also bring their own food and drink.
The Werkself friendly against the top-flight French club RC Lens (kick-off: 16.00 CEST) will be shown live on the monitors in the 19nullvier Lounge.
