Billiards in Japan · 2026
Tournament Calendar 2026
From professional ranking events and the All Japan amateur championships to Kanagawa’s prefectural tournaments. We have gathered the official national events of the Japan Professional Pocket Billiard Association (JPBA) and the Nippon Billiard Association (NBA), together with the official Kanagawa events of the Kanagawa Billiard Association (KBA) and the Kanagawa Amateur Pocket Billiard Federation (KPBA), into a single calendar. Use it to plan your entries, or simply a day at the matches. The rules for each game are in An Invitation to Billiards.
Once subscribed, changes and cancellations appear in your calendar automatically. Event names in the calendar feed are in Japanese.
