Tickets go on sale a week from today. The BYOC tournament last year was a tad lacking in entrants, but it still had a prize pool and trophies for the winners and staff seemed to be fairly accommodating. If there was enough interest, it might be worth it to reach out to them ahead of time if enough people planned on attending to help with organization, etc.

Additional information (based off of last year's tournament): Teams were registered through the DH BYOC tournament system, and then team captains coordinated with event staff via a DH Discord. There were Discord channels for voice, but people could use whatever they wanted. Map pool was a little iffy, but that's because the staff running the tournament didn't have a lot of knowledge in the form of competitive TF2. If reached out to enough in advance, I'm sure they'd be willing to work with the community on things.
I'd imagine they'll use a similar structure in both Atlanta and Denver as well.

Wasn't able to go to the last DreamHack Austin because of school. Hopefully I can go to this one because I've always wanted to go to both a DreamHack event and a LAN as well. Also considering I'm just over 2 hours down the road from Austin it seems like it'd be pretty cool to go to
