Purchase your event tickets, here.
It’s back! The Bay Area Open is the event that started everything for Frontline Gaming, and we’re pleased to announce the 6th year of this premiere 40k tournament! We’re pleased to announce a partnership with Game Kastle, and will be hosting the tournament in their new event center, located at 550 Showers Dr, Mountain View, CA 94040.
This venue has been built for large tournaments and due to the size, we will have room for 200 players, this year! This will be the largest BAO to date and qualifies as a large Major Event for the ITC, and will be generating a ton of points for those who attend! Make sure to grab your tickets early, as the event sold out in 2 weeks last year with a 30 person wait list. You can purchase those tickets, here. We look forward to hosting you for the biggest and best BAO to date. Oh, and as a nice bonus, as we were able to work out a good deal this year on the venue and were able to save a significant amount of money and are passing those savings on to you! So in addition to being the biggest BAO it will also be the most affordable as well. Winning!
