JANUARY 15-17, 2027

THE LEGEND CONTINUES

We are excited to host the sixth annual Ladyblades tournament!

We're doing things a little differently this year, going back closer to our original format, with the marquee Ladyblades event on Sunday. We are still an IATF Major, so the winner of Ladyblades gets a bid to rounds 1 & 2 of IATC 2027.

Our Weekend Schedule is below (as are links to explain Swiss Tournaments and Urban rules). Tickets for the marathon and tournaments are on sale now.
Skills tickets will go on sale later.

Buy before 1 December to get $20 off each ticket.
Secure your spot with a 50% deposit.
You don't need to pay the full price upfront.
