It has been confirmed that in 2023, BLAST Premier will be bringing a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Major to Paris, the first of which to take place in France since 2012. The news was revealed by French President Emmanuel Macron, who took to Twitter to share a video (in French) about bringing the pinnacle of CS:GO to the streets of Paris.

BLAST has since confirmed the news with a short reveal teaser that affirms Paris will be getting a Major next year, but in regard to the finer details about the event, all that we know is that the tournament will be held in May, and that the venue will be Bercy - the same place that held the 2019 League of Legends World Championship.
