2026 TOURNAMENT

Lollapuzzoola 19 took place on Saturday, August 15, 2026 (that was a Saturday in August)! The tournament was a great success — and if you still want to enjoy the content from wherever you are, you can join the At-Home Division. Add the 2026 content to your shopping cart, and get the full array of content — tournament puzzles, championship puzzles, warm-ups, bonuses, meta suites.

Main slate puzzles were constructed by Trenton Charlson, Carina da Rosa, Will Nediger, Ada Nicolle, Adam Wagner, and Amie Walker! Our tiebreaker puzzle is by Laura Braunstein, the crossword meta suite is by Doug Peterson, and the variety puzzle meta suite is by Scott Weiss. Everything was edited by Brooke Husic, and the tournament director was Brian Cimmet. Read more about all of these brilliant folks here.

If you have other questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at lolla@bemoresmarter.com!

We’ve also got a backlog of the past few years’ worth of tournament content, which can all be purchased below. Each set includes the full slate of tournament puzzles, warmup puzzles, championship puzzles, and two meta puzzle suites (one crossword based, one variety based).

Once you place your order, you should get an email with links to download the content. If you don’t see it, check your junk and spam filters (and consider whitelisting bemoresmarter.com). And if all else fails, email us at lolla@bemoresmarter.com if something goes wrong and you can’t access the content.

We’re also entering the world of online apparel orders in the form of t-shirts! If you’re interesting in repping the greatest crossword tournament ever held annually on a Saturday in August, those dreams can come true!

NOTE: If you’re having trouble with the checkout feature here, we have found more success with computers (as opposed to phones and tablets), and with Chrome or Firefox (as opposed to Safari, Edge, or Explorer). If you have the option of using a different device to sign up, give that a try — but if not, email us at lolla@bemoresmarter.com, and we can arrange another method of payment and registration.
