One hundred and fourteen competitors assembled inside the conference halls of the Zhangzhou Hotel on June 27, 2026, creating an energetic focal point for Rubik's Cube solvers across the province. Taking place in Zhangzhou, Fujian, China, the single-day gathering brought together seasoned champions and newcomers alike beneath the bright lights of the historic venue. Twelve rounds across six events unfolded over a compact schedule, turning the busy floor into a showcase of dexterity and mental endurance during a pivotal WCA competition on the regional calendar.

Leading the proceedings on the main stage was Bofan Zhang, who delivered a standout performance to capture three separate titles. In the flagship 3x3x3 Cube event, Zhang outperformed a deep field of 107 competitors, securing the championship with a winning average of 5.93 seconds while also setting the best single of the weekend at 4.86. His victory underscored the remarkable level of modern speedcubing, finishing ahead of Tian Xia, who claimed second place with a 6.73 average, and Zirui Xu, who took third with a 7.13 mark.

The momentum continued across the smaller puzzles, where Zhang earned his second title in the 2x2x2 Cube final. Posting a 1.44 average with a best single of 1.15, he narrowly edged out Tian Xia, who followed closely behind with an average of 1.50, while Jiekai Li secured third on the podium with a 2.00 average. The fast-paced turns of the 2x2x2 rounds provided high drama throughout the early afternoon schedule, setting a rapid standard for the rest of the day.
