The Esports Awards 2023 is officially happening as the organization has announced the eighth installment of the event.

Set to take place once again in Las Vegas, Nevada, the award show hopes to shine a light on the best of the best in the esports industry.



The Esports Awards 2023 will take place in Las Vegas — nominations are open!

Today, June 1, nominations are officially open for fans to give their input into who should be up for the awards. From there, the nominations will close, and by late July, the world will see the first set of nominees.

The first votes can be cast during the turbo voting period from November 13 to 20, during which votes will be worth double. After that, only Esports PC Player, Esports Organization, and Esports Team of the Year will still be open for votes, down to a one-for-one vote to tally.

A total of 31 unique awards will be given out this year in categories ranging from content to coverage, game, casters, players, and more.
