Four days out from the Dubai demos, the cost of getting in is finally fixed: entry starts at AED 99 and day one opens at 4pm for just six hours. Yet of the organiser's 21 tournament add-ons, One Piece and GUNDAM are listed and NARUTO is not

The money and the clock are now known. Only the NARUTO name is missing.

Tabletop.me (Dubai, UAE), the venue for the NARUTO Card Game tutorial sessions, runs November 6 (Fri) – 8 (Sun) — four days from today. With Lucca Comics & Games 2026 closed as of November 1, this is the next place on earth where you can get your hands on the game.

And yet the English official site’s Tabletop.me page says only this about getting in:

Don't forget participation in any of the activities will require entry to Tabletop.me. See the official website for more details.

So “how much” and “what time” can only be answered from the organiser’s side. When we wrote the October 10 article, the organiser’s tickets were not yet on sale. Today they are.

What this article is based on: everything below comes from the English official site’s Tabletop.me Event Information, the organiser’s own site tabletop.me, and the single ticketing partner it names, Platinumlist (all checked on November 2, 2026, 08:20–08:45 JST). Quotations reproduce the official wording. Booth number, session timetable, capacity, participant gifts and merchandise have not been announced officially, so we do not speculate about them. We do not convert dirhams (AED) into yen or US dollars, because no official page carries an equivalent.

1. The session is free. The hall is not

The tutorial section of the NARUTO official page reads, in full:

Tutorial Session

Join our Tutorial Session, and learn how to play in a fun, immersive way.

* Demo decks are not available to take home. * Registration for the Tutorial Sessions is planned to take place on-site on the day of the event. Please stay tuned for further details.

Admission: Free

Admission: Free refers to the cost of the tutorial session. Getting into the building is separate — that is the sentence quoted above about requiring entry to Tabletop.me.

The organiser’s ticket page lists four entry tickets.

Ticket (official wording)	Price
3-Day Ticket (Regular)	AED 199.00
3-Day Ticket (Junior)	AED 99.00
1-Day Ticket (Regular)	AED 99.00
1-Day Ticket (Junior)	AED 49.00

Children are covered in one line:

Children 7 years old and below enter for free.

So the floor price for reaching a “free” tutorial session is AED 99.00 — AED 49.00 if a Junior ticket applies, nothing at all if the child is seven or under. The age band the Junior tickets cover was not spelled out beyond the ticket name in the display we checked.

The organiser also restricts where you may buy:

Tickets & booking only through Platinumlist

2. Day one is six hours long

The three days do not open for the same length of time.

Fri, November 6 4:00 PM – 10:00 PM6hours

Sat, November 7 12:00 PM – 10:00 PM10hours

Sun, November 8 12:00 PM – 10:00 PM10hours

Day one opens at 4pm and runs six hours. Dubai is GMT+4, so in Japan that is 21:00 on November 6 through 03:00 on November 7.

This matters because tutorial registration happens on the day, at the venue. All the official site commits to is Registration for the Tutorial Sessions is planned to take place on-site on the day of the event. — not what time registration opens, how many runs there are per day, or what the capacity is.

With no published way to secure a seat in advance, more hours on the floor is simply better. Six hours on Friday against ten on Saturday and Sunday is a structural difference in how many chances you get to queue.

For contrast, Lucca published a full timetable of 63 sessions (13 runs a day from 09:15 at 45-minute intervals on October 28–31, 11 runs on November 1). Dubai has no equivalent published information.

3. One Piece and GUNDAM are in the organiser’s 21 tournaments

This is the part most worth recording today.

Alongside entry tickets, the organiser’s ticket page lists 21 tournament add-ons, priced at either AED 30.00 (board games and classics) or AED 50.00 (card games and miniatures), with a condition attached:

NOTE: Before purchasing a Tournament Add-on, a tabletop.me entry Ticket valid for the same day is required.

Ten of the 21 are card games.

One Piece Card Game and GUNDAM Card Game are both Bandai titles, listed as paid add-ons with dates and prices.

NARUTO CARD GAME is in none of the 21. In the display we checked, the string NARUTO did not appear on the page at all.

• Card games (incl. One Piece, GUNDAM) 10add-ons（48%）
• Board games 8add-ons（38%）
• Classics (card play and puzzles) 2add-ons（10%）
• Miniatures 1add-ons（5%）

The organiser’s other pages read the same way.

• Games library: The full games library is coming soon. Expect plenty more to discover across the tables.
• Exhibitors: Explore the 2026 line-up. More exhibitor stories and images are on their way.

Neither mentions NARUTO or Bandai.

And on how to plan your visit, the organiser writes:

Specific sessions, guest appearances and tournament availability can change. Check the event's official ticket listings for current information before planning around a particular session.

The “official ticket listings” named as the place to check contain no NARUTO entry.

To be clear: this does not mean the tutorial sessions will not happen. The NARUTO Card Game official site says they will, and that is the primary source. What we are recording is only that the organiser’s listings, library and exhibitor pages do not carry the name. The add-ons are a list of paid tournaments, so a free tutorial session not appearing there is natural in itself. Even so, with two other Bandai card games listed, NARUTO’s absence means there is no official way to look up the timetable before you go.

4. In 2026, Dubai is the only venue that needs no application

One more thing sets Dubai apart: you do not have to apply or book in advance to attend.

The demo-session registrations tracked on our reservations and lotteries hub split like this for 2026:

• The seven Asian BANDAI CARD GAMES Fest 26-27 cities (Jakarta, Manila, Bangkok, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Taipei)
  Advance lottery entry through BANDAI TCG+, winners only — and Taipei’s deadline is tomorrow, November 3, the last entry window in Asia
• The four European and Australian venues (PAX Australia, SPIEL Essen, Paris Games Week, Lucca)
  Advance booking, first come first served. At Lucca all 63 timetabled runs were tied to BANDAI TCG+ event URLs
• Tabletop.me (Dubai)
  On-site, on the day. With no application and no booking, there is nothing to register on the hub at all

1. Buy an entry ticketPlatinumlist only. From AED 99
2. Travel on the dayNovember 6 opens at 16:00
3. Register at the venueon-site on the day of the event
4. Play the sessionFree; demo decks stay behind

The only thing you can do in advance is buy the entry ticket; everything after that depends on the venue on the day. None of the preparation required for the lotteries — such as the face-photo verification mandatory for BANDAI TCG+ draws — applies here.

5. The venue name differs between the two official sites

A small point, recorded for completeness: the two sites do not call the venue the same thing.

Source	Venue name as written
NARUTO Card Game official (English)	The Concourse Convention Center, Dubai Outlet Mall
Organiser tabletop.me official	The Concourse, Dubai Outlet Mall

The organiser also gives the address as Dubai–Al Ain Road (E66). They plainly refer to the same place, but neither site explains the presence or absence of “Convention Center”. Our event page uses the NARUTO official wording.

6. What is still unknown today

The organiser’s data is complete, but the NARUTO side has not gained a single line since October 9. We re-read the official page today and nothing had changed.

• Session timetable, runs per day, capacity per run, any one-session-per-person limit (all of which Lucca published across 63 runs)
• Booth number and format of the presence (the organiser’s exhibitor list does not carry it either)
• CP-001CP-001 Chakra Card giveaways. With no Participant Gifts section on the page, we do not count this as a distribution occasion (the same treatment as the October 10 article)
• Merchandise. Neither the Official Playmat -Naruto vs Sasuke- nor the Premium Card Collection vol.00 -Chakra Set- sold at other venues appears on this page
• The language of the demo decks (Lucca explicitly offered a choice of Italian and English)

The only forward-looking line on the official page is one sentence:

Please stay tuned for further details.

Summary

• Tabletop.me (Dubai, UAE) runs November 6 (Fri) – 8 (Sun), the next venue in the world to offer NARUTO Card Game play after Lucca closed
• The session is Admission: Free, but the hall requires the organiser’s ticket. The floor is 1-Day Ticket (Regular) at AED 99.00 (3-day AED 199.00; Junior AED 49.00 / AED 99.00; Children 7 years old and below enter for free.). Platinumlist is the only seller
• Day one, November 6, opens 4:00 PM – 10:00 PM — six hours against ten on the 7th and 8th. Because registration is on-site on the day, that gap translates directly into chances to get in
• The organiser lists 21 tournament add-ons (AED 30.00–AED 50.00, requiring a same-day entry ticket), including Bandai’s One Piece Card Game (Treasure Cup) (November 7) and GUNDAM Card Game (Tournament) (November 8)
• NARUTO CARD GAME appears in none of the 21, nor in the games library, nor in the exhibitor line-up. The listing the organiser names as the place to check before planning has no NARUTO entry. This is not a sign the sessions are cancelled — it means there is no official way to check the timetable before you go
• Dubai is the only 2026 demo venue requiring neither a lottery entry nor a booking. The seven Asian cities run BANDAI TCG+ lotteries (Taipei’s deadline is tomorrow, November 3) and the four European/Australian venues took advance bookings, leaving Dubai with nothing to list on the reservations and lotteries hub
• Timetable, runs, capacity, booth number, CP-001, merchandise and demo-deck language are all still unannounced as of today
