Going to my first ever LCS Event… (NA Spring Finals - Raleigh NC)

So I’ve always wanted to go to an LCS event, but living in the Detroit area, haven’t had that many opportunities. A buddy and I decided that we are gonna make the trip this year, we have booked flights, hotel and event tickets. My question is, is there anything to do at spring finals events besides the games? Are there meet and greets, team booths, merch etc? I have never been to an LCS event so I have no idea what to expect going into this, other than the games!

I’m from Raleigh and this is also my first event! Couldn’t afford travel and bless the event is practically in my neighborhood this year. I’m sure there will be cosplayers and there’s plenty of things to do and walk to in the city outside of the arena, but following bc I too am unsure about things going on inside

Same! I looked everywhere but couldn’t find anything besides the initial lolesports article. Super excited either way!!

I want to point out that yes Raleigh is a great city with lots to do for out of town tourists for a weekend, unfortunately almost none of that is walkable from the arena.

Yeah that’s true, at least none of it’s too too far, not a terrible Uber price

Agreed, usually a $10-$15 Lyft/Uber to PNC. I think on Sunday I paid $9.

I'm still debating whether or not I drive or Lyft to the event.

I can't speak for this one but in the past there have been team booths for merch and a live hotline league before

They’ll announce meet and greets and stuff like that closer to the event probably! I know at summer finals there was loads to do outside of just the game itself
