This is a great idea. I think the tournaments are posted in the NEws And Events sub-forum. However a standing list would be great. It could be on http://www.boardgamegeek.com/ (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/). It's merely a thread here then it would be more difficult to maintain. Putting it on BGG would be more of a service to the wider community. There is a list of game conventions http://boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/Game_Conventions (http://boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/Game_Conventions)

I like this idea too, and whilst it's true that some of the larger championships (that we're aware of) have their own threads in News and Events, we also have a shared calendar which might be a good place to record these (or at least, the knowledge that they are taking place) in addition to this.

Since this would (presumably) be a Carcassonne Central initiative, I think it makes sense to keep any information we've compiled at Carcassonne Central as not everyone here is a member of BGG (or is able to find anything there even if they are).

I am always really impressed (sarcasm) by the way the local TV news shows report on these events just after they have taken place. 

I guess there is no photo opportunity advantage for them before the event but it serves to fill up 5 minutes on the Sunday evening newscast for them.

I have added a calender event for the UK games expo 2016.

There is also a similar thread already: http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1350.0 (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1350.0)
