Earlier this month Valve indirectly revealed that The International would return to Seattle this year. Prior to that, executives Gabe Newell and Eric Johnson had said that the event may be moved to a location outside of the United States this year, given the proposed visa restrictions.

The International 2017 open qualifiers will run June 22-25, with the regional qualifiers taking place from June 26-29.
