Announcing details for the 2025 Texas Pinball Festival Wizards Tournament!

sponsored blog post

For many years, the Texas Pinball Festival’s Wizards Tournament has been one of the premier IFPA sanctioned pinball tournaments. For 2025, we are thrilled to announce that we have changed the format to give the players exactly what they have been asking for!

The 2025 Texas Pinball Festival Wizards Tournament will be a “Group Matchplay” style tournament split into two groups, an early group and a late group.
This gives four unique benefits that players have wanted and asked for:

1. No time wasted waiting in lines
2. Direct “Social” play in group setting
3. Being split into two groups, early and late, all players will have time to see the rest of the Texas Pinball Festival.
4. Minimizes impact when/if machine malfunctions occur

Tournament entries for the Texas Wizards Tournament must be purchased in advance of the show in our online store. TICKETS WILL GO ON SALE ON NOVEMBER 2, 2024 AT NOON.

In addition to being a Stern Pro Circuit event, the Texas Wizards Tournament qualifies as an “IFPA Certified PLUS” tournament, meaning that its WPPR values will receive a 50% boost over normal points earned.  Because the base TGP value of TPF Wizards in 2025 will be 200%, the boosted total value will be 300%, more than EVER before! Get ready for some Texas-Sized WPPRs.

Thank you for you continued support and feedback.
