2024 World Billiards Championship | Date & Venue Announced

World Billiards is delighted to announce that the 2024 World Billiards Championship will be returning to Landywood Snooker Club in October.

This will be held as a double-header with the English Open, a level 3 World Ranking Event, on 26-27th October, with the timed format World Championship following on from 28-31st October.

Since reopening following significant refurbishment in 2021, the Midlands venue quickly gained a reputation for high quality playing conditions in an environment fitting for national and international tournaments.

After hosting our English Open and World Championship last October the feedback was unanimous from players and spectators alike on the quality of the venue and the warm welcome received.

We are extremely grateful for the generosity of Paul Lloyd and his team in agreeing to host this year’s event and their enthusiasm for Landywood to be an ongoing venue partner for the World Billiards circuit moving forward. We look forward to returning for our blue riband event once again, where a high-quality international field will do battle for the prestigious John Roberts Trophy which dates back to the first World Championship in 1870.

Jason Colebrook, Managing Director of World Billiards, said: “We are delighted to be back at Landywood again this year for the 2024 World Billiards Championship. Last year the playing conditions were excellent, and the hospitality from Paul and his team was greatly appreciated by all players and officials”.

Paul Lloyd, owner of Landywood Snooker Club, said: “Myself and all the staff at Landywood Snooker Club are very proud to be hosting the prestigious World Billiards Championship again this year. Last year’s championship was a milestone for our club, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back in October”.

More details will be announced in due course.
