Register as DM & Host a Game:

If you are ready to host & DM an Adventurer Leagues game (or even a regular campaign), please join The Adventurer Leagues discord server and message one of the Admins (“BBEGs”) or Mods (“Innkeepers”).  They will add you to the DM Chat channel and work with you to get your game chat and Roll20 games setup.
