Gamers Without Borders is a non-profit festival featuring a range of live shows, concerts and esports tournaments. The festival will take place for the second time this year. It is financed by the Saudi Arabian Electronic and Intellectual Sports Federation (SAFEIS). ESL will host the CS:GO tournament, and distribute $10 million in just one part of the event.
