Convergence Fest 2026: the TFT Vegas Open comes to Las Vegas
Riot has announced Convergence Fest — a three-day live event in Las Vegas from December 11–13, 2026 that, for the first time, combines the TFT Vegas Open and the Riftbound NA Regional Championship (Riot's trading card game). It's the community's year-end meetup.
Quick read
- TFT Vegas Open: an open-bracket LAN with 1,024 players — starting on Day 1, with a single champion crowned on Day 3.
- Played on Set 19: the tournament runs on the new set, which launches shortly before the event.
- Riftbound NA Regional: the top 64 Riftbound players compete for a path toward the world championship.
- More than matches: Artist Alley, developer panels, showmatches, cosplay, a prize wall, game shows and exclusive merch.
Two main tournaments
The TFT Vegas Open is a large open-bracket event: up to 1,024 players enter the LAN from day one and play it down until a single champion is crowned on the final day. Notably, it will be played on Set 19 — which launches just before the event — so it's also the first high-level look at the new meta.
The Riftbound NA Regional Championship gathers the top 64 players from regional qualifiers, competing to advance toward the Riftbound world championship. Placing the two tournaments side by side creates a shared festival for both communities.
What's there beyond the games?
Convergence Fest is built as a full festival: attendees can watch top matches, rip Riftbound packs, catch developer panels, meet the community and browse Artist Alley. The three-day schedule also packs in side events, a prize wall, game shows, showmatches, cosplay, meet-and-greets and event-exclusive merchandise.
