Teamfight Tactics has announced it will host a TFT Open tournament in Las Vegas, Nevada, in 2026.
The event for the auto battler title returns to Las Vegas for the first time since 2023, where the city hosted the inaugural TFT Open tournament.
Unveiled on December 11th, 2025, the TFT Vegas Open marks a return to North America after hosting Open events in Macau and Paris in 2024 and 2025, respectively. The event remains an open event, providing all players with a chance to qualify for the Main Event and compete for the Tactician’s Belt.
Other than a return to Las Vegas, information on the event venue, format, and prize pool has yet to be revealed. 2023’s Vegas Open took place at the MGM Grand Conference Center, with 512 players competing for a share of a $304,900 (~£227,958) prize pool.
Two years ago, Ryan ‘milala‘ Lai won the Tactician’s Belt and $100,000 (~£74,763), building momentum into 2024, where he secured victory at the Remix Rumble: NA K/DA Cup and the Remix Rumble Championship.
The return to North America after hosting TFT Open events in Asia and Europe seemingly confirms that Riot Games is rotating regions, as it does for the League of Legends World Championship. If this is the case, the 2027 TFT Open could take place in Asia once again.
TFT Paris Open 2025
Before attention turns to the TFT Vegas Open next year, all eyes are on the TFT Paris Open taking place from December 12th to 14th. A total of 768 players from across the world have descended on the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles for a chance to lift the Tactician’s Belt.
The 768 players compete across four rounds to earn a place in the Final Lobby, where eight will play for outright victory. TFT Paris Open uses a Checkmate format. Players who earn 20 points put the remaining players in check and must win a game to secure checkmate.
Fans can tune into the action on the Teamfight Tactics Twitch channel.
