Magic: the Gathering Grand Prix

Grand Prix are the biggest open events run around the world, attracting hundreds of Magic players to battle for prizes and glory in a festival atmosphere. They're high-energy and often feature the best players in the world. But you don't have to be a pro to play—Grand Prix are open to players of all ages and no invitation is necessary. Playing a good game is all that matters, and with high Planeswalker Points multipliers on the main event and cash prizes all the way down to 64th place, one thing is certain: a Grand Prix is sure-fire great time. Each participant gets an alternate-art Goblin Guide promotional card, and the top four finishers earn a coveted invitation to the Pro Tour!
