Snooker's elite have flocked to Nanjing, China, for the 2026 edition of the International Championship.
Last year's event saw local prodigy Wu Yize win the first of what will surely be many ranking titles by beating John Higgins 10-6 in the final.
Yize, who has since added the World Snooker Championship to his collection, was the third Chinese winner in three years after Zhang Anda in 2023 and Ding Junhui in 2024.
A host of homegrown players will hope to get the crowd on their side as they aim to continue that trend but will face plenty of competition from overseas stars hunting the trophy and the largest share of the prize fund.
It's set to be another sterling week of snooker as we edge toward the first of the Triple Crown events, the UK Championship, later in November.
Radio Times brings you all the details about how to watch the International Championship snooker 2026.
The International Championship starts on Saturday 31 October and runs until Saturday 7 November.
The final – which is best of 19 frames – will take place on Saturday 7 November.
