Greetings everyone, this forum post is a handy guide to show what ongoing and upcoming events and esports are going on for Overwatch primarily for North America. This includes in-game events (such as seasonal events and Competitive Seasons), official gatherings (such as the convention appearances), special third-party promotions (such as Twitch drop promotions) and Esports (such as Overwatch Contenders, World Cup, and Overwatch League). I will try to update this guide weekly at the very least. If you have any questions please post them below. Cheers! (^^)v
