Before you
plug in.
Tickets, BYOC setup, tournaments, the floor, and the boring-but-important stuff. If your question isn't here, the Discord answers fastest.
Tickets & entry
Head to the event page, pick your seat on the interactive map, and check out. Tickets are sold per seat - once a seat is booked it's locked to you. Payment runs through Quicket, and your QR pass lands in your email and your profile straight after.
Your seat for the full duration of the LAN, hardline fibre internet, surge-protected power at your desk, access to every tournament and side-room, and the mainstage broadcast. Food and drinks are sold separately on the floor.
Seats are refundable up to 14 days before doors open. Inside 14 days we can transfer your seat to someone else but can't refund it. If an event is cancelled by us, you're refunded in full automatically.
Yes. When an event is full you can join the waitlist from the event page. If a seat frees up we email the next person in line with a short window to claim it before it rolls on.
BYOC & setup
Bring Your Own Computer. You bring your full rig - tower, monitor, peripherals - and we provide the desk, the power, the network, and the chaos. It's the classic LAN format: your machine, your settings, no shared hardware.
Your PC and monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, and a 3-prong extension lead / multiplug for your desk. A network cable is handy but we have spares. Don't forget your ID for check-in.
Every seat gets surge-protected power and a wired ethernet drop. We run fibre to the floor with hardline switching - no shared Wi-Fi for gaming. Wi-Fi is available for phones and laptops only.
Laptops are welcome - just bring it like any other rig. Consoles are fine for the casual zones but most tournaments are PC titles, so check the specific bracket rules on the event page before you commit.
Tournaments
Tournaments are listed on each event page with their titles, formats, and prize pools. Register your team (or solo-queue where allowed) before the cut-off. Brackets are run in partnership with ZA Esports Hub.
Most LANs clear six figures in combined prizes across titles, topped up by our sponsors. Exact pools per title are published on the event page once registration opens.
Depends on the title. Team games usually need a full roster, but we run open queues and look-for-group channels in our Discord so solo players can find a squad before the cut-off.
On the floor
Yep - just book your seats next to each other on the seating map. Seats are picked individually so coordinate with your crew before checkout to grab a block in the same zone.
There are food vendors and a drinks bar on the floor for the full duration. Energy drinks, coffee, and proper meals - we keep it running through the late-night stretch.
The floor runs around the clock. There are quiet chill-out areas to crash for a bit, but there's no dedicated sleeping accommodation. Most people power through - that's half the point.
The main competitive floor is for ticket holders. For finals we open the mainstage area to spectators - keep an eye on the event page for spectator passes closer to the date.
Check-in & rules
Bring the QR pass from your profile or email. We scan it at the door, match it to your ID, and you're on the floor. Check-in is what verifies you as an attendee - it's also what unlocks your ability to leave a review afterwards.
Be decent. No harassment, no cheating, no tampering with anyone else's gear or the network. Keep your zone clean. We reserve the right to remove anyone making the floor worse for everyone else, no refund.
ENTER LAN is open to all ages, but attendees under 16 need a parent or guardian to sign off at check-in. Some sponsor activations and prizes may carry their own age restrictions.

The community Discord is the fastest place to get an answer - from us or from someone who's done a dozen LANs.
