Look Sports Media – Riot Games has unveiled more exciting details regarding the League of Legends World Championship (LoL Worlds) 2025 final opening ceremony, promising a spectacle unlike any other. The grand finale is slated for Sunday, November 9th, taking place in Chengdu, China, at the state-of-the-art Dong’an Lake Sports Park Indoor Gymnasium.
The opening ceremony will be a star-studded affair, featuring live performances from renowned artists including G.E.M, Chrissy Costanza, TEYA, and the Italian DJ and visual artist, Anyma (Matteo Milleri). Anyma, celebrated for his immersive visual live performances, will take on the role of director, lending his creative genius to the event.
Riot Games has brought Anyma on board as a creative collaborator, emphasizing his ability to bring "his groundbreaking visual direction and live production expertise to the Worlds stage." Anyma’s reputation precedes him, having captivated audiences at major events worldwide. He notably held the first electronic music residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere and recently delivered a breathtaking show at the Pyramids of Giza.

Beyond his solo performances, Anyma has also contributed his creative vision to other large-scale productions, including The Weeknd’s São Paulo concert, which drew a crowd of over 70,000 fans. At Worlds 2025, he will not only direct the opening ceremony but also perform "Sacrifice," this year’s LoL Worlds anthem, alongside G.E.M.
"I’ve been an avid gamer all my life, so headlining Worlds 2025 is a real honour," Anyma stated. He expressed his enthusiasm for collaborating with Riot Games, adding, "Riot Games’ consistent storytelling on such a large scale feels truly limitless… I’m thrilled to bring my sound and touch into their world to push the boundaries of what’s possible through such an impactful medium."
Maria Egan, Global Head of Music & Events at Riot Games, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the ambition to elevate the ceremony to new heights. "By uniting the League of Legends IP with Anyma’s visionary visual artistry, we’re creating an exclusive live experience that further cements Worlds in the ranks of the world’s most iconic cultural events," she said.
In addition to "Sacrifice," the opening ceremony lineup includes Chrissy Costanza, lead singer of Against the Current, who will seemingly revisit her iconic performance of "Legends Never Die," a fan-favorite from Worlds 2017. She also performed "Phoenix" at Worlds 2019. TEYA, a former Eurovision contestant, will perform "Bite Marks," the theme song from this year’s season-opening cinematic.
The event promises to be a fusion of music, visuals, and gaming culture, setting the stage for an unforgettable LoL Worlds 2025 final.
