The Chinese Taipei Open brings an international field to one of nineball’s established centres of talent. Its fifth edition takes place from 6–10 January 2027 at Songshan Cultural and Creative Park in Taipei City, marking its first staging as a jointly promoted event between Matchroom and Fullcan Sports.

A 128-player field competes through double elimination until the last 64, when the tournament moves into straight knockout. The structure gives players a route back from an early defeat before every match becomes decisive in the pursuit of the title.

The Open begins a two-event programme in Taipei, with the World Pool Masters following at the same venue from 12–14 January. Together, the events bring a broad international ranking field and a select invitational line-up to the city at the start of the new season.
