Esports Insider says: We are currently seeing a growing trend of sports venues playing host to esports tournaments. Emirates Stadium will join the evergrowing list of UK sports venues, which includes Twickenham Stadium and The Copper Box Arena. With dedicated esports venues not set to emerge for a couple more years, we have no doubt more sports venues will play host in the interim.
