CDM S11 2026 Schedule

As per one of the trusted sources, @sweatsden, the official dates for CDM 2026, aka China Masters Season 11, have also been revealed. The leaker revealed the official schedule on his X on February 17, 2026, at 1:16 AM IST.

Based on the tweet, the tournament will be played in three stages. The teams will compete in 5v5 mode. The three stages are: Regular Stage, Playoffs and Grand Finals.

Regular Stage: The Regular Stage is expected to be played in a double round robin format. All the teams will compete in the best-of-5 (BO5) matches. These matches will be played between March 12, 2026, and April 19, 2026.
Playoffs: This stage usually follows double elimination bracket format. The match-ups will again be in Best-of-5 format. It will be held between April 23, 2026, and April 26, 2026.
Grand Finals: The best 2 teams will square off in a Best-of-Seven series. It is most likely going to be a LAN event. It will be played on May 10, 2026.

This is the first time a non-Chinese team will have a chance to be crowned champions of the Chinese region, so you can expect the competition to be very high. New rivalries may arise in the build-up to the actual Call of Duty Major 2026, the roadmap of which is expected to arrive by March.
