Vilnius GP 2026: More Than a Qualifier
📅 Friday 18 September 2026
With the addition of a Grand Prix tournament and a direct seat in the GP Final at stake, VTES EC Vilnius 2026 is no longer just a Last Chance Qualifier. The familiar EC structure remains unchanged: five finalists from Friday automatically qualify for Day 2, with the same competitive integrity, clear rules, and established EC standards. What’s new is the impact. The winner of the Vilnius GP will automatically qualify for the Grand Prix Final, held the following day. This creates a special GP qualification path: Four finalists determined by GP ratings One guaranteed finalist: the Vilnius GP winner And so it begins again — this time, Vilnius bites harder.
