The event is open to the public with no admission fees. Kindly note that general admission may not open until after tournament check-in has concluded.

➤ Do I need to pre-register for tournaments?

Pre-registration on Bushi Navi is not strictly required, but strongly recommended as each event has a maximum capacity. For team events, please note that your pre-registration will not be “Selected” until all 3 team members have joined on Bushi Navi.

Players will be able to register on-site if maximum capacity has not been reached. If maximum capacity is reached before the event date, players will be able to join the waitlist, and waitlisted players will be able to check-in in waitlist order.

Side event registration will be done exclusively on-site. Please follow staff instructions at the event.

➤ Will the event have free Wi-Fi for me to use Bushi Navi?

Internet availability varies by venue, and is not guaranteed. It is recommended to bring a mobile device with a stable connection. Players with no connection will be able to check each round’s pairings and report results with the Tournament Organizer.

➤ Will there be a lunch break?

There are no planned breaks in the tournament schedule. However, the Tournament Organizer at each event may announce if a break is planned.

➤ Will there be food on sale at the event? Can I bring and consume my own food?

Food and beverage policies vary by venue. For all events, please refrain from consuming any open food or beverage in the tournament area.

➤ Will there be a parking fee?

Parking policies vary by venue. Please consult the venue’s website for details.

➤ If I have a sponsored invitation, can I make my own flight and accommodation arrangements, and seek reimbursement after?

Please take note that all tickets and accommodation arrangements will be handled by Bushiroad or their designated representatives. There will no longer be reimbursements for such arrangements purchased by the players themselves. If changes to flight ticket dates are requested, please indicate in the form during the submission. Late requests will not be entertained.
 
If we do not receive the completed form by email within 2 weeks after the tournament has ended, we will assume that the invitation has been turned down and therefore the invitation will be withdrawn.
