When is the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament in 2026?<\/h2>\nThe Fijian Cup Oztag tournament runs from Thursday 3 to Sunday 6 December 2026 at Lawaqa Park in Sigatoka, Fiji. Play starts each morning and finishes at 2pm, and the tournament closes with an awards evening and a traditional Fijian lovo dinner on the final night.\n\n

How much does the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament cost?<\/h2>\nPackages start from $1,399 per person for the solo booker package and couples package, and $699 per person for the subsidised referee package. Prices are in NZD for New Zealand departures and AUD for Australian departures. You secure your spot with a $50 per person deposit and pay the balance in weekly or monthly instalments.\n\n

Where is the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament played?<\/h2>\nGames are played at Lawaqa Park in Sigatoka on Viti Levu, Fiji. Teams stay at Shangri-La Yanuca Island on Fiji’s Coral Coast, with coach transfers to and from the ground included in every package.\n\n

What divisions are in the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament?<\/h2>\nThe Fijian Cup Oztag tournament has four divisions: Open Men’s, Open Women’s, Open Mixed and Mixed Masters (women 30+, men 35+). Spots for international teams are limited in every division, so registration places your team in the invitational draw rather than guaranteeing entry.\n\n

What is included in a Fijian Cup Oztag package?<\/h2>\nReturn flights, accommodation at Shangri-La Yanuca Island, daily buffet breakfasts, all coach transfers, full tournament entry, a welcome cultural function with canapes and drinks, and an awards evening with a traditional Fijian lovo dinner and cultural performances.\n\n

How do I enter a team in the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament?<\/h2>\nRegister your team through the invitational draw form on this page. You will need your team name, division, team manager’s name, email and mobile number. The TourismHQ team will come back to you to confirm your place. Free player name changes are available until six weeks before departure.\n\n

Is the Fijian Cup Oztag tournament televised?<\/h2>\nYes. The Fijian Cup is broadcast across Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and 15 other Pacific territories via Sky Sport, Kayo, Fiji TV and PCB. A professional broadcast, commentary, photography and video team is flown in for every tournament.\n\n

Can I bring family who are not playing?<\/h2>\nYes. Couples packages include the option to add children, and non-playing partners and family are welcome at the resort and at all social events. Play finishes at 2pm each day so afternoons are free for golf, spa treatments, snorkelling or time with the family.\n\n

What is the difference between Oztag and Touch at the Fijian Cup?<\/h2>\nThey are separate tournaments on separate dates with separate prize pools. Oztag runs from 3 to 6 December 2026 and is played by removing a velcro tag from a belt, while Touch runs from 19 to 22 November 2026 and is played with a two-handed touch. Both are held at Lawaqa Park in Sigatoka and both carry over FJD$50,000 in prizes. Teams and individuals are welcome to enter both.\n\n

Can I play more than one Fijian Cup tournament in the same year?<\/h2>\nYes. The four codes run on separate weekends across November and December 2026, so teams and individual players regularly enter more than one. Netball is 12 to 15 November, Touch is 19 to 22 November, Rugby League 9s is 26 to 29 November and Oztag is 3 to 6 December. Each tournament is booked as its own package.\n

Do We Need To Purchase An Official Package To Enter The Tournament?<\/h2>\nYes, by group buying together we\u2019re able to deliver the best value-for-money packages while also underwriting the event and the incredible prize packages. These packages also help cover the costs of flying in representatives to run referee and coaching clinics for our Fijian Hosts and also entry for Fijian teams who might otherwise struggle to afford entry.\n\nDue to the huge costs involved and limited seats on transfers etc, guests that haven\u2019t booked an official package are unable to join teams at official functions and on transfers.\n\n<\/div>\n

How Do I Register To Play?<\/h2>\nTo compete all athletes must be registered with the purchase of an official package at www.FijianCup.com.\n\nIf you\u2019re short of players there are a number of Fijians that would love to join your team. Players are limited to register for one team only. To ensure player accreditation and printing of passes before commencement, all players must have registered by booking an official package by NZT 5pm 31st May.\n

Do I Need An Accompanying Parent Or Guardian If I Am Under 18?<\/h2>\nYes you do. As there is travel involved if you are under 18 you must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.<\/span>\n
