The Skyesports Grand Slam is set to happen in Pune, India from March 14 to 16 during the 6th India Gaming Show 2024, an international gaming, animation, and infotainment event by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII). The tournament will feature four teams – one from India and Australia each, and two from Europe – engaging in intense esports action for the title of champions and a share of the staggering $50,000 prize pool.

Additionally, LG UltraGear™ will be showcasing its innovative monitors through an interactive booth at the India Gaming Show 2024 allowing attendees to immerse themselves into the world of gaming with cutting-edge displays.
