The winds are calling us WEST. Our next move is hosting the first ever Open Invitational Mahjong Ladies Tournament hosted in Oceanside, California.
If you love to play mahjong and you love pretty places- you're with the right people!
We have taken our epic girls trips and given it a new twist: MAHJONG. (We already seem to play it on every Open Invite trip, anyway!)
We'll spend three nights along the beach of California. You'll wake up with the waves along the beachside property, play mahjong during the day (mixed in with good food and fun hang outs) and experience the Open Invitate magic for four days together.
Prizes will be won, cute clothes will be worn, and lots of fun will be had.
We can't wait to see you in California!
This trip is for ladies who love to play mahjong. You should be able to play without help, but no further experience is needed. There will not be tutors on-site, so please be ready to play on arrival.
FEb 19, 20 & 21 at The Seabird in Oceanside, California
Feel that West Coast welcome when you arrive for our WEST Winds Dinner Party on Thursday
Grab one of the seats to play in both the free time, messy mahjong & Open Invitational bracketed play.
Graze a pretty spread of food while you play on Friday
Join us in your flowery frocks for a final evening on Saturday
What gatorade is to professional athletes, so coffee is to mahjong ladies.
The resort can set you up with included chair service along the beach. It will be the perfect weather for shorts, sweatshirts and a cup of coffee to watch the waves!
See you there! The location is between San Diego, LA & Laguna. We recommend any of these three airports.
Luckily, there are about 20 great restaurants within 5-10 minutes walk from the hotel
This afternoon, arrive to the resort on your own time. Check-in officially begins at 3pm, but you're welcome to store bags on site, if you arrive early. (There's lots to see and do, so you won't be bored!)
This evening, the fun starts at 6pm. We'll kick off the weekend with a California-chic welcome party- The WEST Winds- to celebrate our destination for the weekend.
After dinner, we'll start a few rounds of play. These are just for fun to get to know everyone and start warming up the Mahjong fun.
This morning, enjoy breakfast on your own- either downstairs at Piper or nearby at one of the cute beach cafes that are dotted around the area
At 10:00, the official play time will kick off. You'll be assigned play times for your chance to progress through the bracket. Whether you win or loose, there will be amply time to play for anyone wanting to keep the fun going throughout the day.
At noon, lunch will be served and you'll be free to fuel up for the afternoon.
At 3pm, the tournament will officially finish for the day at the semi-final round.
The afternoon and evening are yours to do as you like. Enjoy dinner in town with new friends, but be sure to meet us back at the beach for our campfire s'mores on the beach at 9pm.
This morning, enjoy waking up to the waves.
At 10am, come join us for the final rounds of Mahjong. These final rounds will decide the premier Open Invitational Champion of 2026- and the winner takes home the prize!
After the final round, you'll enjoy lunch and the afternoon as you like. Want to head to the beach for some lazy time in a cute chair? The resort staff will get you all sorted. Want to head to the spa? All our wishes for the best time. Need to wander the boutiques nearby for some shopping? We may have to join you.
If you still haven't had your fill of playing, we'll have some casual "messy mahjong" play time available for anyone interested.
This evening, dress in your floweriest frock for our FLOWERS FAREWELL. One last evening together to enjoy this special inaugural Open Invitational group in one place.
After the party, official trip services conclude. (However, you'll of course still be staying the night at the hotel with us.)
This morning, you'll wake up... And you're next move?
Well, that's wherever the winds will take you from here.
Either way, we know we'll already be hoping you come back for the fun next year.
