1. Introduction

A Go tournament is a competition lasting one or more days, usually involving more than two players. The world of professionals and the world of amateurs each have their own tournaments, which rarely allow for each other to participate. Professional tournaments usually last longer and involve high prize money, while most amateur tournaments are held in one weekend and have fun prevail over prize money.

2. More about amateur tournaments

Several organizations, such as the IGF, the Japanese and Korean Go Associations and the Ing foundation, hold worldwide amateur tournaments, lasting a week or longer. Participants are often the local champions of one national association. Europe and the US each have their congress. Major city tournaments have been grouped into one competition and linked to a sponsor, such as the Toyota Tour. Follow the links below to read more about such events.
