How do you join a Path of Exile 2 qualifier event?
If you're planning to compete, there's a bit of prep to do first. You'll need to make sure your Path of Exile account is linked to your Twitch account, which you can do by logging into your account on the official website and heading to the connections page.
Once that's done, joining is simple: click the "Join" button for the race on the Character Select screen. You'll then be prompted to create a character before entering the game.
