'LCK Team Roadshow: T1 Home Ground' (hereinafter 'T1 Home Ground'), the signature fan event by global esports entertainment company T1 Entertainment & Sports (T1), is generating significant buzz ahead of its upcoming August debut.

Amid explosive interest from domestic and international fans, all home seats for the LCK matches on August 14 and 16 have sold out. With anticipation at an all-time high, T1 stated that it is making final preparations to welcome fans with a rich and meaningful program.

The T1 Home Ground event will feature high-stakes regular season and LCK Challengers League (LCK CL) matches, sure to ignite the crowd's cheers.

Going beyond the game, T1 is partnering with the animal rescue organization Korean K9 Rescue (KK9R) to host a special social contribution booth. This campaign, supported by T1 players and influencers, aims to raise awareness about the plight of abandoned dogs and provide them with a new lease on life.

The campaign goes beyond mere awareness; the on-site booth will directly facilitate the adoption process for dogs awaiting new families. Notably, T1 will cover all costs associated with the adoption and care of any dogs that find new homes through this initiative.

Furthermore, all proceeds from the on-site booth will be donated to KK9R to support their rescue and protection efforts. By creating a space where fans, the brand, and animal welfare organizations can come together, T1 aims to foster a culture of solidarity and positive influence within the esports community.

In celebration of the 81st National Liberation Day, the event will also feature a tribute to heroes across generations under the slogan, "Every Hero Deserves a Home Ground." T1 will officially invite national veterans and Asian Games national team athletes to honor their dedication and reflect on the monumental significance of Liberation Day with fans.

On August 15, the T1 Home Ground venue will host a star-studded show match and a variety of events to further heighten fan excitement.

The show match lineup features global VALORANT superstar 'TenZ', T1 VALORANT ambassador and FIFTY FIFTY member ATHENA, popular creators 'Xccurate', 'BunnyBunny', 'Lee Sang-ho', 'Dohyun', and 'Kim Seong-tae', as well as former pro gamers 'Pawn' (Heo Won-seok) and 'Piglet' (Chae Gwang-jin).

In a nod to T1's high-difficulty playstyle—often dubbed 'circus' by fans—the 100-year-old Dongchun Circus Troupe will perform a special celebratory show, promising a spectacular and thrilling experience.

Additionally, T1's signature original content, 'Talk Wave', will be held as a live, on-site event for the first time. The session will feature beloved former pro gamers 'Wolf' (Lee Jae-wan), 'Untara' (Park Ui-jin), 'Bang' (Bae Jun-sik), and 'Blank' (Kang Sun-gu), with a special guest appearance expected to pique fan interest.

To maximize accessibility for global fans, T1 is introducing a real-time AI interpretation subtitle system for the live 'Talk Wave' event. This initiative aims to set a new standard for esports viewing, allowing fans worldwide to communicate and enjoy the event together, regardless of language or borders.
