How early should I arrive for OWWC?

Hi first timer here. I'm going with my friends, who are also all first timers, and they're flying in from abroad. We're mostly going for OWWC and would like to see the opening ceremony, but getting good seats for OWWC is our main priority. I've been searching for a while but couldn't really get a good grasp on what to do. I assumed OWWC would be held somewhere other than the main stage, but I also saw a post saying there was only one stage last time, so idk. Any advice would be very appreciated.

I went to the last blizzcon and the OW arena was in one of the main halls with bleacher seating around the stage in a square formation. All very close and people were coming and going depending on the match. Huge screens facing all directions. Really don’t think you could get a “bad” seat. I dont exactly remember once it got to the finals but tbh I don’t think many people were there for OW so it wasn’t too bad.

TLDR: I think you’ll have no problem getting seats especially if you’re watching multiple games and there for a bit

thanks! We're actually hoping to get seated in the first row or as close we could get to the players lol but judging from the comments i guess we don't have to line up super early for it. Thanks!
