French esports group Team Vitality is marking the VALORANT Champions Paris, running from September 12 to October 5, 2025, with fan events across the city. The first activation will provide free shuttle buses to the venue, giving fans the chance to earn exclusive items during the ride. Videos have also been shared to help fans explore Paris during the event.

At the team’s V.Hive headquarters, the space has been updated with VALORANT-themed decor, letting fans play the game, watch matches, and meet roster members. The organisation views the event as special since it takes place at home and shows how esports can thrive beyond screens, according to Amélie Canet, Director of Strategy and Brand Development.

Team Vitality started 2025 strongly, winning VCT EMEA Kickoff and finishing in the top four at Masters Bangkok, though the squad did not qualify for VALORANT Champions. Despite this, the events show France is a growing spot for esports and fans.
