DATE TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON
poLANd.tf is a community tf2 LAN event focused on the integration of TF2 European and Polish Communities, providing a chance to meet and play our favourite game and compete in a competitive 6v6 tournament with the best teams in Europe and beyond organised since 2018.
with over 600m2 of space, two floors and over 90 gaming station seats (PC). Thanks to that, we have a possibility of renting a gaming rig to compete on fair grounds against the other players. BaseStack provides attendees with not only whole gaming rigs, but also peripherals. People who are used to playing with their favourite mouses and keyboards are welcome to take their own peripherals. The place is known for its tournaments, hosted every weekend, that gain sizeable popularity on TikTok.
Gaming rigs offered by BaseStack:
Rewolucji 1905 roku 45, 90-215 Łódź, Poland
The closest airport to the event is Łódź-Lublinek (LCJ), although connections are limited. If there’s no easy connection to this airport, we recommend searching for flights to Warsaw-Okęcie (WAW) or Warsaw-Modlin (WMI).
Both Warsaw airports have direct bus connections to the Łódź Fabryczna stop via Flixbus. Łódź Airport offers public transportation to the city center.
When in Łódź, we recommend using the Jakdojade app (Apple/Android), MobileMPK (Android only) or Google Maps. The nearest bus stops are: Jaracza, Sterlinga i Kilińskiego – Rewolucji 1905r. The nearest train station is Łódź Fabryczna. We encourage you to pay for your tickets using the SkyCash app.
Parking spaces in the city center are very limited, so we recommend finding parking while you’re staying overnight. Most parking lots in the city are paid on weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Parking is free on weekends.
YES! This time, you can eat and drink (even while using your computer). The owner allows this option, provided you buy your food and drinks from them. There’s an on-site shop where you can order drinks (including from the fridge) and warm papu (from the oven/microwave). No food or drink is allowed inside the venue (except water).
You can use the BaseStack hardware (and pay for it) to play, or you can be an observer. No other options are provided.
Absolutely not, but you can do it outside.
Absolutely! We welcome anyone from abroad who is interested.
No. The main purpose of LANs is to play on servers only available locally, so you can enjoy the pleasure of playing without the lag we experience when playing online. There’s no way to connect from outside.
YES, but these aren’t the medals you’re expecting. We have physical medals for every team tournament! And trophies for winning the MGE Cup! We also have pins, courtesy of Zuri, that look like this. Depending on demand, we’ll announce pin prices.
Sure! There were a few participants like that at the previous edition, and from what I understand, they had just as much fun as those who played. Before you come, make sure you sign up on our Discord.
It depends. If you’re under 15, you can’t; if you’re older, you must have parental consent, and your parent must designate a person, by name and surname, to act as your guardian during the event. This person must be with you throughout the event, as they assume full responsibility for you.
Because we found a place that offers a lot at a relatively low cost. This allows us to rent computers without having to worry about transporting our own. Another advantage is that Łódź is located in the very center of Poland, and most people have direct access to the city. For international gamers, the proximity to the airport and, of course, the general price of goods compared to Western Europe are the advantages.
Registration is through qualifications only and is only available for entire teams. The venue has 87 spots for players. Registration on poLANd.tf 2026 will begin in November.
We are currently raising funds to improve the quality of the event, so if you like what we do, any donation will help us continue the project.
