The Mayor of Ulaanbaatar and the CEO of major tournament operator PGL have officially formalized the agreements reached earlier to host a PGL Esports event, PGL Ulaanbaatar.
With a signed agreement and a handshake, the two sides sealed a deal that opens the way for a major international esports event in Mongolia’s capital. It goes beyond a formality: the deal marks their shared ambitions becoming reality and the first step toward making Ulaanbaatar a new hub for the global Counter-Strike community.
After the negotiations, it was revealed that PGL is preparing a truly special esports tournament in Mongolia, one set to impress CS2 fans and visitors to the city alike. Spectators will be an integral part of this global event, where the crowd energy, intense matches and massive international scale come together into a unique atmosphere that makes a trip to Mongolia an absolute must.
Local culture will get special emphasis, along with The Horde, a fan movement built with the support of fans that has grown into a true cultural phenomenon in recent years. The organizers are keeping the details under wraps for now, but PGL Ulaanbaatar 2027 already has the potential to generate buzz far beyond Mongolia’s borders.
PGL is one of the largest organizers of international esports competitions. In recent years it has held events in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Astana, and later this year it will organize a Major in Singapore. PGL has already announced its 2027-2028 esports tournament schedule, with PGL Ulaanbaatar 2027 set to be an entirely new venue.
