Video game developer and publisher Capcom and consumer electronics company LG have announced that on Saturday the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles will play host to the LG Cup Street Fighter IV HD tournament, which will feature some of the best players in the world and will offer some excellent chances for amateurs to brush up on their game.

The Los Angeles tournament is just one installment of a worldwide Street Fighter championship and in addition to the matches fans can also register for giveaways, events and get access to free food.

Those who are interested in actually taking part need to register using the official site of the LG Cup Street Fighter IV HD Tournament but entry for all those who just want to watch is free.

The prizes come in at just over 21,000 dollars (16,460 Euro) and there’s also a shot at the grand prize, a fully paid up trip to South Korea.
