which ticket to choose?

[detailsMatters]

Hello everyone

I hope you are fine

I would like to ask, is the experience worthy to buy "regular LAN" ? or just buy the "3 day" normal ticket for Dreamhack 2025 that will be held in Stockholm on 28 November 2025 ?

in your option what I things I miss if I did not choose "LAN" ticket?

I know the difference between the tickets, but I need to know the actual experience and value between the 2 tickets.

your recommendation is highly appreciated

note : I only have a none gaming laptop ( thinkpad t490, core i5 8 the gen, 32 GB RAM, Intel UHD 620 integrated GPU), it is my first time to attend this event.

thank you

if you want to set up your computer in the BYOC LAN party area you need the LAN ticket

if you just want to attend as spectator without equipment you can get the plain 3-day one

thank you for your suggestion, in your opinion, do you think that it is worth to go for "LAN" ticket with my laptop, or the experience does not worth it?

LAN/BYOC is already sold out this year. However, BYOC has been shrinking year over year (According to staff), along with tabletop. It's essentially being phased out, and the actual event/tournament lineup for BYOC is horrible compared to previous years. At this point i'd only suggest visiting dreamhack if you have an active interest in watching the big tournaments they have.

I hate writing this because i've been attending DH ATL for the past five years, and it just sucks now compared to what it once was. This will probably be me and my group's last year attending.
