Field notes
The calendar gives each listed tournament a venue, date range, ticket-sale status or opening date, and starting price. The guide says official sales generally open about five weeks before a tournament, and distinguishes those tickets from tours that bundle admission. Its quiz asks about timing, group size, and visitor priorities before recommending an experience.
