Post Malone to Headline Esports World Cup 2025 Opening Ceremony
Jun 19, 2025.
Esports World Cup’s opening ceremony just got even wilder with the appearance of Post Malone, a long-time gamer himself. His live performance during EWC’s Opening Ceremony on July 10th will blend chart-topping sound with a celebration of gaming culture on the world’s premier competitive stage.
A 9x diamond-certified global artist and lifelong gamer, Post Malone has deep roots in the esports and gaming community – co-owning OpTic Gaming, streaming Call of Duty: Warzone, PUBG, and Hunt: Showdown on Twitch, and collaborating with developers on in-game events, including a recent crossover with Apex Legends.
“Esports is becoming a global cultural force – where music, storytelling, and competition converge to create moments that are not just seen, but felt,” said Mike McCabe, Chief Operating Officer, of the Esports World Cup Foundation. “With Post Malone opening the tournament, we’re creating our own sound, our own identity – a universal language that brings fans together and defines the cultural future of esports.”
Some of Post Malone’s most popular songs include the Grammy Award-nominated “Rockstar” featuring 21 Savage, “Sunflower,” which was featured on Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, and “White Iverson.” He currently has over 887K followers on Twitch, where he streams his favorite game and interacts with fans.
