MTG Spotlight Series - Utrecht
15 - 16 March 2025
The Magic Spotlight Series is a large, multi-day celebration that will spotlight a specific theme at each event, and elements of that theme will influence the weekend’s events. Just as exciting as the events themselves, each Magic Spotlight Series stop will feature a flagship main tournament—a two-day open event that features a $50,000 prize pool, a sweet promo card, and invitations to an upcoming Magic Pro Tour event for the Top 8 finishers.
Join us for the first European MTG Spotlight Series on March 15th to 16th 2025 at Jaarbeurs in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
