PRO Handball USA Announces Its 1st Mega Event in LAS VEGAS
PRO Handball USA is proud to officially announce what has been internally set for many months: the 1st PRO Handball USA Mega Event will take place in the world’s entertainment capital — LAS VEGAS.
From August 1 to August 9, 2026, Las Vegas will become the global epicenter of handball as eight elite teams — including Olympic champions, World champions, Champions League winners, and some of the best players on the planet — gather in the United States for nine unforgettable days of top-level competition.
The state-of-the-art Lee’s Family Forum in Henderson, with a capacity of 5,800 spectators, will host more than 20 action-packed matches, making this event one of the most ambitious handball showcases ever held in North America.
“In our preliminary work, we spent significant time and energy identifying the ideal destination for the first Mega Event in the USA. Many excellent locations and arenas were offered and carefully considered. However, from an early stage, Las Vegas, Henderson, and Lee’s Family Forum stood out as the perfect match.
Las Vegas offers everything — a central U.S. location, world-class hospitality, outstanding accommodation options, and a unique atmosphere. It is simply the ideal destination for nine spectacular days of handball.
We felt welcomed from day one by the team at Lee’s Family Forum, and we are confident they will deliver an extraordinary experience for every visitor. At the same time, the Las Vegas Convention Center demonstrated why they attract so many international events. We extend our sincere thanks to Tyler Baldwin and his team for their strong support and collaboration.” said PRO Handball USA CEO, Mads Winther.
