Description

The Q Tour, officially the WPBSA Q Tour, is a second-tier series of snooker tournaments immediately below the level of the World Snooker Tour, consisting of amateur and ex-professional players to compete for qualifying places to the main tour. It is administered by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA).

Originally known as the Minor Tour, UK Tour and then the Challenge Tour, the WPBSA then operated the tournament as the intermediate circuit between the main tour and the pro-am Open Tour for the lower-ranked professionals until the end of the 2004–05 season; it was later repositioned as an amateur-only event and revived from the 2018–19 season after a 14-year hiatus. The series expanded to other European countries outside of England and rebranded to its current name from the 2021–22 season, and since the 2023–24 season regional Q Tour franchises, established under the Q Tour Global banner, are also introduced as supplementary tours. There are now over 20 Q Tour events to be held during a regular snooker season.
