Garena Youth Championship 2026 Free Fire Grand Finals set for Jakarta
The Garena Youth Championship (GYC) 2026 Free Fire will hold its Grand Finals on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at the UNAS Auditorium in Jakarta. Twelve schools from various regions across Indonesia have qualified for the final stage following nearly three months of competition.
In collaboration with Universitas Nasional (UNAS), the tournament offers educational support totaling up to Rp300 million. Scholarship rewards are tiered based on ranking: the first-place team can receive a 100 percent college scholarship, the second-place team 70 percent, and the third-place team 50 percent. Other participants may receive registration fee waivers.
Beyond educational incentives, the championship serves as a pathway to professional esports. The winning team will receive a golden ticket to the Play-ins for the Free Fire Nusantara Series (FFNS) 2027 Spring. Additionally, the top four teams will have the opportunity to represent Indonesia at the GYC Free Fire Asia Invitational 2026 in December, competing against champions from India, Thailand, and Vietnam.
