Europe–we are listening! Due to the popularity of the MagicCon: Las Vegas $100,000 Limited Open event, we are adding a similar event to the ticketed play offerings at MagicCon: Barcelona and making a slight change to the ticketed play schedule.
The MagicCon: Barcelona $75,000 Limited Open is a competitive event that boasts a large prize pool and the chance to win invitations to our first 2024 Pro Tour taking place at MagicCon: Chicago in February. This event is perfect for people who are interested in playing in a large, multi-day tournament.
The $75,000 Limited Open costs €135 to enter (price is inclusive of VAT and fees) and participants will need to buy a Friday and Saturday MagicCon: Barcelona badge to participate in the event. MagicCon: Barcelona attendees will be able to purchase this ticketed play add-on from Thursday, June 29 at 6 a.m. PT (3 p.m. CEST) via mcbarcelona.mtgfestivals.com.

If you are unable to login, select "Click here to reset your password" from the login page. Once you have logged in, you will have access to purchase this new event.
This event will replace the Friday, July 28 Pro Tour Qualifier. All MagicCon: Barcelona attendees who have signed up to participate in this PTQ can choose to be added to the Limited Open event at no extra charge or can opt to have their PTQ entry refunded. Please note, this event has a maximum capacity of 1,200 players.
