The NAVI fan zone has opened at the Hotel Ukraine in Kyiv. It was inaugurated on August 24, Ukraine’s Independence Day. Here, visitors can learn more about the club’s history and see one of its most famous trophies—the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024 cup—up close.
Other NAVI memorabilia will also be available for guests to take photos with, along with a giveaway of official club merchandise. Admission is free.
The venue will be open daily from 10:00 a.m. for two weeks—through September 6.
The project was implemented as part of the initiatives of Maksym Krippa’s ARS Capital ecosystem, aimed at developing and promoting Ukrainian esports.
The centerpiece of the fan zone is the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024 trophy. On March 31, 2024, NAVI won the final and etched their name into Counter-Strike 2 history as the first Major champions. This is the club’s second title at this level—NAVI won their first back in the CS:GO era.
On their way to the championship in Copenhagen, the team navigated a challenging tournament path, gradually overcoming opponents at various stages. In the final, NAVI claimed the trophy and $500,000 in prize money.
Holding meet-and-greets with fans in Ukraine has become a regular practice for NAVI. The club organizes watch parties and comes up with new ways to engage with its audience.
This time, the fan zone is located at the “Ukraine” Hotel at 4 Alley of the Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred. The property belongs to businessman Maksym Krippa, who purchased it in September 2024 at a privatization auction. The 16-story, four-star hotel continues to expand.
Krippa also owns NAVI, Maincast, Burny Games, and GSC Game World—the developer of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
The fan zone will be open until September 6. During this time, NAVI fans can view the championship cup and other trophies, take photos, and participate in activities.
