(Wiki)Iron Squid is a tournament that deserves an exceptional place for its final show. This very prestigious is none other that Le Grand Rex. Le Grand Rex is the largest cinema, theater and music venue in Paris. An atmospheric theater, the cinema features a starred "sky" overhead, as well as interior fountains. The cinema is a landmark of Art Deco style architecture. It features the largest screen in Europe, called grand large. Le Grand Rex is capable to gather over 2, 500 spectators that will come to watch a day long show on StarCraft II. The ticket will be available at 6pm on www.PlaceMinute.com for €35,95. The show will start at 10 am and end at 10pm, here is the schedule of the day:

Trailer of Iron Squid Grand Final.



"Hi Squidies ! Now you know that the finals will be live at Le Grand Rex on the 5th of May from am to pm! Be there, be Crazy and be ready to live the largest amount of skill and insanity ever reached in that spectacular theater! And to know you will play the semi-finals, be on www.ironsquid.tv Saturday 8pm CET for the Ro8! It's just the beginning of Iron Squid..."
Alexandre "Pomf" Noci, French Caster



"We haven't even gotten through the RO8 yet and every match is already shaping up to be a GSL-finals level event. The absurd quality of this tournament is beyond compare. We took 20 of the best players in the world and only 8 made the cut. This is the cream of the crop, the very best that Starcraft 2 has to offer and by the time we get to the live Grand Finals event in Le Grand Rex only 4 will remain. We have already seen some astonishing games, we've seen legends fall and hopefuls looking for their shot at the top. Le Grand Rex in Paris is a fantastic venue for what can only be an astonishing show. Huge capacity, the loudest crowd you'll ever hear if what I've seen of French eSports is anything to go by and of course the best games. We'll have the pleasure of providing the English stream and myself and Apollo are completely hyped for it. Casting games of this calibre is a privilege and we hope to bring you all the excitement as we bring this tournament to a close in an explosive manner. Do yourself a favour and don't miss out"
John "Total Biscuit" Bain, English Caster

Don't know if you will be able to fill it. 35€ is pretty expensive for the semi finals + finals.

40 bucks for a remarkable all day event is a pretty good price.

40 bucks for a remarkable all day StarCraft event, on a StarCraft nerd's budget, when asking StarCraft fans to come... is a not-so-good price.

A 2 hours shitty movie cost 10€ in Grand Rex. A 9 hours SC2 show cost 40...not that expensive finally.

Surely they're going to have a hard time selling 2500 tickets at 36 euros a pop for a 4 man, all Korean tournament?

What a sick venue!

I really hope they can fill it! GLGL IronSquid - Awesome tournament, and of course awesome music as well (IronSquid produced 20+ songs specifically for the tournament - The most well known is probably this one:



Several player themes composed for this as well - MC's theme is especially awesome!
