— NORDIC MASTERS 2025 —
What is Nordic Masters?
The Nordic Masters is the biggest Magic the Gathering event of the year in Northern Europe. From August 29 to the August 31 Mindstage will be hosting Magic tournaments from Friday to Sunday! The event is hosted in a location worthy of this premium Magic the Gathering experience — Malmö Exhibition and Convention Centre!
In our main events we will crown a Nordic Champion of both Modern and Legacy. On the side of this we have a packed schedule of side events! Standard- and Limited-RCQ:s, Modern, Legacy, Duel Commander, cEDH, and other formats. Regardless of your favorite format you will have plenty of Magic to play!
Distributed just between the two main events we have a guaranteed prize pool of more than 150.000 Swedish Crowns! The prizes are given out in tickets that you can exchange for boosters, products or card singles on site. The Modern event is a Destination Qualifier – meaning that the top 8 players in the event will qualify to the Regional Championships!
The Nordic Masters is a part of Malmö Game Week — a convention dedicated to game lovers with a lot to see other than just Magic! If you buy a ticket to one of our two main events the entry fee to Malmö Game Week is included in the price.
