Cool cool, you should probably consider visiting anyways, seeing as it's quite an amazing city! (A bit biased of course, but I've been to a lot of the capital/bigger cities in Europe, and Stockholm is one of the best/coolest for sure!) | ||

In reality, you'll need quite alot of customers for it to go around. i'm aware of this and I really dont want to throw my money away, atleast not when we're talking about a couple of million SEK. What i'll do is rent a place for the next major event (might be MLG Colombus semi-finals + finals) and put my money on it like that since that'll only cost me around 40 000 SEK if it totally FLOPS. It would be a great experience to have tried it out and see if its actually a valid business venture without throwing too much money away. | ||

I'd say make a successful bar, and start with just doing an E-sports night, on top of like a football, soccer, whatever night as well. You want customers first and foremost and then you can start doing creative things ^_^ | ||

You want customers first and foremost and then you can start doing creative things ^_^ Starting a successful bar isn't something you just start, if that was the case everyone would just open a bar, you kinda need a plan and a demographic to fit into that plan to even have a remote shot of being successful. Unless you have the best location possible but that'll cost far more than I'm willing to spend. | ||

I think it sounds like an awesome idea, though of course it's not only "esports + bar = success", you would have to make sure to have a nice bar, good food, good drinks and so on. I absolutely think it could become a success if done right though! | ||

Like others have said, you can't have E-sports viewing on TV as the main attraction or else you get too small of a clientele, but with a "gaming" themed bar you could work in the e-sports viewing pretty easily. i'm really not sure that this would work in Sweden seeing as we dont have a single theme-restaurant as far as I know, the closest we got is TGIF. Doing something like that with zerglings and zealots all over the place would scare away loads of people, I wouldnt go to that bar even if I owned it. | ||
