ActivisionDexerto sources can confirm that DreamHack is making its return to the United Kingdom, bringing not only DOTA 2, but also bringing back the Call of Duty League to the UK for the first time since the visit to the Copperbox Arena for the Modern Warfare CDL season.
First revealed by Insider Gaming and later confirmed by Dexerto sources, DreamHack will be at the National Exhibition Centre in March. While it’s always worth taking dates with a pinch of salt since there are still a few months until the 2026 season begins, DreamHack is indeed expected to run from March 26-29th, 2026.
Dexerto sources can also reveal that this will be for the Black Ops 7 season’s second major, and it will not be the only time that the Call of Duty League returns to Europe for this season, as Paris will host Major IV.
Activision / Twitter, @CODLeagueWhat is DreamHack?
DreamHack is a gaming festival that combines esports tournaments, LAN parties, as well as music, live streaming, gaming culture and more, all under one roof.
It is widely known for bringing and hosting multiple esports competitions, and that won’t stop in the United Kingdom, as DreamHack is reportedly attempting to capitalize on the gap in the market left by the Insomnia events. While there is one major title yet to be confirmed, DreamHack UK 2026 will feature DOTA 2 and the Call of Duty League.
