The 28th Annual Gothenburg Open Go Tournament is a friendly and relaxed go tournament held in Gothenburg, the second largest city of Sweden. It is one of the largest tournaments in Scandinavia. It has a low entry fee and free lodging. There are lots of cheap flights to Gothenburg's two airports, or you can go by boat or by train - see the page Getting here.

The tournament is open to all players who wish to participate. We hope to see players of all different strengths compete and have a nice time. It is a five-round standard McMahon tournament (EGF class A) with a thinking time of one hour each and Canadian over time (20 stones in 10 minutes). EGF rules apply.

A five-round McMahon tournament means that all players will get to play five games against other players of approximately the same rank. Reduced handicap will be used for players weaker than about 10k if needed to make sure that everyone gets to play five fun and exciting games.
