Team Liquid is proud to work alongside Dell Technologies to open its newest Alienware Training Facility in Utrecht (AWTF EU), the vibrant university city and booming tech hub of the Netherlands. The facility is a monument to Team Liquid’s founding in Utrecht and provides a glimpse into its future as a 20-year-old organization poised to remain at the forefront of industry innovation. Opening a few months shy of the 10-year partnership milestone between Team Liquid and Alienware, the AWTF EU will act as Team Liquid’s European headquarters and regional capital for the organization’s pro teams, talent and staff.
Team Liquid recognizes the importance of both mental and physical health for its players, and the AWTF EU embodies that philosophy. The 1060m2 state-of-the-art facility was designed from the ground up to provide a healthy and sustainable environment for esports training, performance and overall wellness. Among other highlights, the building features multiple dedicated areas for players, staff and the community, including:
- World-class practice and scrim rooms to facilitate enhanced training
- Onsite athlete accommodations and gym allowing for rest and recovery
- State-of-the-art technology from Dell Technologies & Alienware enhancing the functionality of every room
- Custom Team Liquid art and branding
- 120-person viewing party zone
- Bullpen-style open office
- A full-time executive chef to provide nutritious dining offerings
- Sustainable construction by Venhoeven CS & AHH Architects, using bio-based and recycled materials, an efficient cooling installation system, and smart acoustic and light systems. It is also located one minute from Utrecht’s city centre and central train station, minimizing travel distances
Bryan de Zayas, Global Marketing Director at Dell Technologies, says:
“Our goal with the Alienware Training Facility was simple: provide Team Liquid with top-of-the-line technology so they can continue their winning legacy. This world-class facility is outfitted with the best Alienware hardware and end-to-end solutions from across the Dell Technologies portfolio. We congratulate Team Liquid staff and players on this amazing accomplishment, here’s to many more years of big plays and winning!”
