Riot complete lack of Worlds viewing party advertising

K I have been playing League since Season 3. I have been watching pro games since Season 4. Every year there is some theater near me that holds a Coca-Cola sponsored viewing party, Typically a Cine-mark. However League/Riot NEVER advertises this. The Theater doesn't advertise this. And its almost impossible to find it on the Theater website.

The last 2 years I have literally spent hours looking for where I can watch Worlds live near me. There is no way a "normal" player would put this kind of effort into finding these viewing options. Why does Riot not aggressively push these? Why does it feel like they are practically making it as hard as possible? Again I have watched worlds LIVE, which has cost an average of $20, for the last 3 years. As such I am at the point where I don't care to scour the internet and multiple theater sites, Coca-Cola sponsorship page, https://www.leagueoflegendsincinemas.com/movies/7586/website#home, or any other ridiculous amount of effort.

Can someone from Riot, or anyone who has an answer really, respond to this? [sg-lux-2]

  1. Why don't you advertise these viewing parties? Particularly the theater based ones. This should be just some permanent link on the League Console home page. ADVERTISE YOUR SPONSORS. You could have such a larger viewer base if the players knew about them.

  2. Are there any places holding viewing parties? How can I look into that? Is there some site that is the complete list of places to watch? Not community based events, but League/sponsored events.

  3. The below website seems to be the site that would have all the info that I am looking for. It has been updated for the 2018 Worlds. But the rest of the site is blank. "Tickets" link only has the current date. No way to change date to see upcoming events. https://www.leagueoflegendsincinemas.com/movies/7586/website#home

If you can turn me away from trying to support League, Sponsors, and everything related to Worlds there is no way that you have turned 85% of players away from these events. Please fix this.
