Countdown in London
Countdown in London is a Countdown tournament held in the UK's capital. It debuted on the co-event circuit in 2010. There have been eight events to date. Since the first, held in Islington, North London on 22 May 2010, the tournament has been held in various districts across the city, and has had a number of different organisers at the helm. It has been a FOCAL-affiliated event since 2017. There was no event in either 2020 or 2021 due to the COVID pandemic, but it has run annually again since 2022.
