When and where is the 2026 Reyes Cup?
The 2026 Reyes Cup will be played over four days at Makati Coliseum in Makati, Philippines. Competition begins on Thursday, October 15 and concludes on Sunday, October 18.
Each daily session is currently scheduled from 7:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. local time in Manila. Organizers may adjust session times if production or match requirements change, so ticket holders should check the official event information before traveling.

How much do 2026 Reyes Cup tickets cost?
Three ticket options are available, ranging from single-session general admission to a full-event season ticket. All listed prices exclude VAT.
| Ticket type | Price | Access |
|---|---|---|
| General Admission | PHP 660 | One standard session |
| Premium Seating | PHP 1,600 | One premium-seat session |
| General Admission Season Ticket | PHP 2,000 | All four event days |
The season ticket offers the clearest value for fans planning to attend the entire competition. Four separate general admission tickets would cost PHP 2,640 before VAT, compared with PHP 2,000 for the full-event general admission package. That is a PHP 640 difference based on the published prices.
Fans can purchase seats through the official TicketNet event page. Availability may change as sections sell, especially for the final session and premium seating.
Why is the 2026 Reyes Cup important for Team Asia?
Team Asia has won both previous editions and arrives in Makati with an opportunity to complete a three-title streak. A home event in the Philippines also places the defending champion in front of one of the sport's most passionate nineball audiences.
The competition carries special meaning because it is named for Filipino legend Efren Reyes. The event's team format also creates a different type of pressure from an individual tournament: every rack contributes to a collective score, and momentum can move rapidly from one pairing to another.
Reigning world champion Carlo Biado is confirmed to lead Team Asia. He is joined by Robbie Capito, who reached the 2026 US Open final and currently stands as the highest-ranked non-Filipino player named to the Asian team.
Who has been confirmed for Team Rest of the World?
Francisco Sanchez Ruiz and Shane Van Boening are the first confirmed names for Team Rest of the World. Sanchez Ruiz returns after winning his second US Open title earlier in 2026, giving the team a player in proven major-championship form.
Van Boening will make his Reyes Cup debut. The five-time US Open champion brings extensive experience in televised team competition, as well as one of the most accomplished records in modern American pool.
| Team | Confirmed players | 2026 context |
|---|---|---|
| Team Asia | Carlo Biado | Reigning world champion and leading Filipino selection |
| Team Asia | Robbie Capito | 2026 US Open runner-up |
| Team Rest of the World | Francisco Sanchez Ruiz | Two-time US Open champion |
| Team Rest of the World | Shane Van Boening | Five-time US Open champion; Reyes Cup debut |
The full lineups have not yet been announced. More selections are expected before October, so the confirmed names should be treated as the opening core of each roster rather than the complete teams.
What should fans expect at Makati Coliseum?
The Reyes Cup is designed as a four-day team confrontation rather than a conventional open-bracket tournament. That structure puts added weight on communication, player combinations and the ability to perform for teammates as well as an individual result.
Makati Coliseum will bring the event into the heart of Metro Manila. With Team Asia defending consecutive titles and several Filipino stars expected to feature, the arena should give the hosts a strong home atmosphere from the opening session.
The confirmed matchup already contains several compelling contrasts. Biado and Capito represent the defending Asian side, while Sanchez Ruiz and Van Boening bring major-title experience to a Rest of the World team attempting to stop a third consecutive Asian victory.
How can fans watch the Reyes Cup outside the Philippines?
Every session is scheduled to stream live on WNT TV. The service gives international viewers access when attending Makati Coliseum is not possible.
Fans should check WNT TV closer to the event for the final broadcast schedule and any subscription requirements in their location. The tournament sessions are planned for 7:00 p.m.-11:30 p.m. Manila time on each of the four days.
What follows the Reyes Cup on the World Nineball Tour?
The Philippines Open Pool Championship follows immediately after the Reyes Cup. It is scheduled for October 20-24 at Gateway Mall in Quezon City.
Together, the two events create a major Southeast Asian swing for the World Nineball Tour. International players can move directly from a team event in Makati to an individual championship in Quezon City, while local fans receive more than a week of elite nineball competition.
That scheduling also raises the competitive stakes of the Reyes Cup. Players selected for both events will need to manage the emotion and intensity of a team contest before quickly resetting for an individual tournament.
