ABOUT NRG STADIUM AND LCS SPRING PLAYOFFS
-----------------------------------------
Home to the NFL’s Houston Texans and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, [NRG Stadium][5] has hosted a number of premier sporting events including Super Bowl XXXVIII, Super Bowl LI and Wrestlemania 25 (2009). The 2022 LCS Spring Finals Delivered by Grubhub marks the first time an LCS event has been held at an NFL stadium.
As in years past, the 2022 Spring Split Playoffs will feature a six-team bracket, with double elimination given to the top four seeds. The lower bracket finals and grand finals will be played at NRG Stadium on Saturday (April 23) and Sunday (April 24), respectively. Each broadcast day will begin with a pre-show at 1:30 pm CDT, with matches starting at 2:30 pm CDT.
The LCS Spring Split champions will also qualify to represent North America at the 2022 Mid-Season Invitational, where they’ll compete against the leading teams from each of the 12 competitive regions — including heavyweights from Europe, South Korea and China.

- You must have unobstructed vision at all times (i.e., must not need to remove a piece of your costume in order to see).
- Armor cannot pose a threat to others by way of sharpened metal edges, spikes, or bladed surfaces. Metal and wood costumes will not be allowed per venue security.
- All swords or bladed weapons must be blunt-edged and cannot have a sharpened edge (no metallic or predominantly wooden weapons). No weapon may be sharp or pointed enough to cut or pierce someone with moderate pressure, or heavy enough to create a threatening club. Note: Worbla and 3D prints will be permitted, pending that it follows the above weapon restrictions.
- You may not bring firearms of any kind including air guns or cap guns, as well as any replica weapon (i.e., facsimiles or realistic versions of real-world weapons). Any firearms must clearly be of prop nature and should be made of primarily foam and/or light plastics (prop firearms may not be made of wood or hard, metal materials). Cosplayers may be asked to prove that the prop is not dischargeable.
- Any bow-type weapons must be unstrung or strung with a low-tensile thread. All prop arrows must have non metal, blunted tips.

- You may not use smoke effects, fire, explosives, or any other environmental hazard in any capacity.
- You may display your prop weapons only as costume pieces. Do not swing or brandish your prop in any way that could be considered unsafe or threatening. Failure to comply may result in immediate confiscation of the item with no return.
- You may pose with a prop in a brandishing manner, so long as no reasonable person would interpret the pose as anything other than dramatic effect. Local police, event staff, or management may stop you at their sole discretion.
- There will be no bag check or prop storage available on site.
- As a final note, everyone attending the LCS Spring Finals event will need to have a ticket in order to enter the event.
