We will host AtCoder World Tour Finals 2026 to crown the world champion of AtCoder players!
AWTF2026 will invite a total of 24 contestants, 12 in the Algorithm division and 12 in the Heuristic division, to the finals to be held in Tokyo, Japan. We will cover flights and hotels.
The finalists will be determined based on the results of AtCoder's contests during the year 2025. The schedule for the finals will be announced once finalized.
The method for determining the finalists is as follows:
### Algorithm Division
The finalists will be determined based on the results of AtCoder Grand Contest. If you get the top 30 places in AGCs, you will get GP30 scores. The top 12 with the highest total GP30 scores will be invited to the finals.

### Heuristic Division
The finalists will be determined based on the results of AtCoder Heuristic Contest. If you get the top 30 places in AHCs, you will get **weighted** GP30 scores. The top 12 with the highest total GP30 scores will be invited to the finals.

### Detailed Rules
If you participate in designated contests (mainly rated contests without rating upper bounds that start in 2025) and get into the top 30, you will be awarded GP30 scores multiplied by the weight for each contest, as shown in the table below. For the Algorithm division, all weights are 1. For the Heuristic division, short contests have a weight of 0.5, and long contests have a weight of 1.

- The total GP30 score will be modified if you lose the right to participate in contests due to involvement in problem setting (e.g., writers for AGCs, and writers/testers/tool-developers for AHCs). If the total weight of contests with GP30 scores in 2025 is X, you are involved in problem setting for contests with a total weight of Y, and you get S points in the remaining contests with a total weight of X-Y, your total score will be adjusted to S / (X - Y) * X. This rule won't apply to AGC testers.
- In case of a tie, the average score will be used. For example, if three people are tied for first place, each will get (100 + 75 + 60) / 3 points.
- If there is a tie at the 12th place, the participant with a higher Algorithm/Heuristic rating as of December 31, 2025, will qualify. If ratings are also tied, everyone tied at the 12th place (with points and ratings) will qualify.
- AWTF2026 will allow only on-site participation. If a finalist cannot attend due to certain circumstances, the next runner-up will be invited.
- Participants under 18 are welcome, but those traveling to Japan must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at their own expense.
