Six Invitational returning to Paris in 2026

The 2026 Six Invitational will be held in Paris, returning to the French city for the first time in five years.

The news was confirmed during the Rainbow Six Siege RELOAD event in Rio de Janeiro over the weekend, with the season finale set for February 2-15.

R6S’s most prestigious tournament was held in Montreal, Canada, for the first three seasons before moving to Palais Brongniart in Paris in 2021, when Ninjas in Pyjamas claimed the title.

Since then, the event has visited Stockholm (2022), Montreal (2023), São Paulo (2024), and Boston for the most recent iteration in February this year.

Besides announcing the location of the next Six Invitational, BLAST also revealed the location of the first major event for the season.

BLAST R6 Major Munich will be a decisive event where the teams compete for spots in the year’s world championship.

It will mark the first time the tournament takes place in Germany since the Six Berlin Major in 2022, when now-disbanded Rogue won their first and only R6S Major title.

While the announcements did not include venues, it indicates that the 2026 R6S season will focus more on Europe, which is one of the most successful R6S regions.
