One Piece TCG Bandai Card Game Fest is one of the largest official events organized by Bandai for its trading card games. Multiple Bandai titles share the same venue, including the One Piece Card Game, Digimon Card Game, Dragon Ball Super Card Game, and others. For One Piece players and collectors, the event combines competitive tournaments, casual play areas, retail booths, and exclusive promotional items that are only distributed during the festival.

For collectors in particular, Bandai Card Game Fest is known for its limited promo cards tied to attendance or participation. These cards are typically given to visitors when entering the venue or through special activities during the event weekend.

What is Bandai Card Game Fest?

BANDAI CARD GAMES Fest (often shortened to BCG Fest) is a large in-person event series organized by Bandai for its trading card games. Each event gathers multiple card game communities in one venue for a weekend of tournaments, side events, exhibitions, and retail sales.

The One Piece Card Game is usually one of the main titles featured during the event. Players can compete in official tournaments, join casual side events, watch championship matches, and participate in activities organized by Bandai and local partners.

• Competitive play: headline tournaments connected to the Championship season. Some locations also run Last Chance Qualifiers (LCQs).
• Side events: smaller tournaments or casual play events open to registered participants.
• Retail: official merchandise and card game products sold directly at the venue.
• Giveaways: promotional cards or items distributed to attendees when entering the event.

Where is Bandai Card Game Fest held?

Bandai Card Game Fest is organized as a global tour. Each season the event travels to multiple cities across North America, Europe, and Asia, bringing together players and collectors from around the world. The tour usually includes around twelve stops, each hosting a weekend festival with tournaments, product showcases, and promotional giveaways.

Recent tours have included locations such as Dallas, Manila, Jakarta, Bangkok, Singapore, Taipei, and Utrecht in the Netherlands. These events are typically held in large convention centers and attract thousands of visitors from the trading card game community.

The current 2025–2026 Bandai Card Game Fest tour follows the same global format with stops in Dallas, Manila, Bangkok, Jakarta, Taipei, Singapore, Düsseldorf, Hangzhou, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Las Vegas, and Tokyo. Each stop hosts tournaments, exhibitions, retail areas, and special promotional distributions tied to the event.

While the event travels across several regions during the year, the final stop of each tour cycle is traditionally held in Japan. This final event often attracts a large number of players and collectors and serves as a celebration of the global Bandai card game community.

How you register

Registration for most official Bandai events is handled through the BANDAI TCG+ app. Players use the app to apply for tournaments, confirm participation, and check in at the venue.

For popular locations, entry spots can be limited. Some events use pre-registration with lottery selection to determine who can participate in certain tournaments. Even if you are not playing in the main tournament, visitors can often attend the venue to watch matches, buy merchandise, and collect event giveaways.

Because the promotional cards distributed at Bandai Card Game Fest are tied directly to attendance or participation, these events are an important source of limited One Piece TCG promos. For collectors, the giveaway cards from each annual tour often become recognizable pieces of the game’s promotional history.
