Gonna Need Milk to host inaugural The Milk Cup Finals

Gonna Need Milk is set to host The Milk Cup Finals, the first-ever all-women’s Fortnite LAN event, taking place at Los Angeles Comic Con on Oct. 5. This championship will see 99 of the nation’s best women gamers compete for a share of the largest prize pool in North American women’s esports history, continuing Gonna Need Milk’s commitment to elevating and fueling women athletes. 

Developed in collaboration with women gamers and in partnership with Fortnite streamer ThePeachCobbler, Women of the eRena (WOTE) and produced by Raidiant’s all-women production team, The Milk Cup aims to address the unmet needs of women in professional gaming and provides a safe and inclusive space for women to compete professionally. Its inclusive format — featuring open qualifiers, trios, multiple rounds, and scheduled scrims — has allowed players of all skill levels to participate. The Milk Cup is also covering all travel expenses and accommodations for the 33 qualified trios, ensuring that financial barriers do not hinder participation.
