Three days out
The Northern Ireland Open 2026 starts on Monday, 19 October. It ends on Sunday, 25 October. Belfast is the host city. The discipline is snooker. The event is rated tier two.
That leaves three days. Three days until the opening session in Northern Ireland.
The number that matters
The prize pool is £435,000. It is the headline figure of the week. Players will travel to Belfast for a share of it.
Every match counts. Every frame shapes the run.
Belfast on the calendar
Belfast holds a place on the snooker map. This edition runs for seven days. The city keeps the table from the first session to the final.
Snooker rewards patience. Seven days is a long time at the table. It is also short when the standard is high.
The week ahead
The draw will unfold day by day. Early rounds set the tone. The weekend brings the closing stages.
No player can be counted out. Form matters. Nerve matters more.
The countdown
Three days remain. The Northern Ireland Open 2026 opens on 19 October. It closes on 25 October in Belfast. The prize pool is £435,000.
Then the table does the talking.
