We have reached the competitor limit of 150 so if you register, you will be added to the waiting list.

The entry fees for competitors is €14, guests can attend free of charge.

How to register for the waiting list

  1. Fill in the form on this site.
  2. Pay the entry fee.
  3. You are now on the waiting list. Whenever a spot becomes available, we will send the first person on the waiting list an e-mail. You can claim the spot if you reply within 48 hours after we send you the e-mail.

If your registration is not accepted before the competition, we will refund your entry fee.

Cancellation

If you registered but are unable to attend for some reason, you can cancel your registration by sending an email to the organizers. If you do this before Friday, February 24 at 20h00, we will refund half of your entry fee.

Change events

You can change the events you are registered for on on this site, until Friday, March 24 at 20h00,

Competitors for each event are divided into groups. Some events (like 2x2 and 3x3) will have a lot of competitors and therefore many groups, while others (like megaminx) will only have 2 groups. At the competition, we will announce when a group starts so you can bring up your puzzle to the scrambling table and place it on the scorecard that has your name.

When arriving at the competition, go to the registration desk to receive the overview of the groups you are competing in and judging, scrambling or running for, during the first rounds. This is the minimum amount you should be helping out. If you want to help out more, you are always welcome to fill an empty judge seat. We appreciate this enormously as it helps us running the competition smoothly!
