The Asia-Pacific Championship is a regional qualifying event for the 2026 CREATE U.S. OPEN in the United States, bringing together outstanding VEX and CREATE teams from across the Asia-Pacific region.
The competition will invite teams from China (including Hong Kong and Macau), South Korea, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. Alliance Champions and Excellence Award winners in the V5RC and VIQRC divisions will earn qualification to the 2026 CREATE U.S. OPEN.
During the qualification rounds, all teams compete in a unified pool, and the top performers qualify for the CREATE U.S. OPEN. In addition to the unified international rankings, Korean teams are also evaluated within a separate Korea Open ranking. As a result, teams may qualify for the CREATE U.S. OPEN either through top performance in the main challenge or through strong results among Korean teams.
