Information

Welcome to Greenwoods Big Blind and Beyond 2026!

This competition features 4BLD as the main event and will take place right after FMC World 2026 in the morning. It is also the first competition in the Philippines to feature two rounds of 4BLD.

The competition includes official events such as 7x7, Clock, 3BLD, and MBLD, with a focus on big cubes and blindfolded events. No 3x3 event will be held, as this competition is designed for specialists in quiet events.

Unofficial events include Master Magic and Pyraminx One-Handed. Please check the Unofficial Events tab for more details.

This competition marks the third Greenwoods competition of the year, following Greenwoods Clock Clash 2026 and Greenwoods Summer Overtime 2026, continuing the series of uniquely themed events in the community.

We encourage all competitors and guests to review the information tabs for details on the schedule, regulations, venue guidelines, and registration to help ensure a smooth and well-organized competition.

We look forward to seeing you—join us for a day of focused, quiet solving, where blindfolds are on and every solve is all about memory and precision.
