Get Paid to Travel: The OpenRoom Tournament
What if your next group trip could pay for itself? The OpenRoom Tournament is a way to make money traveling — and even travel for free. Here's everything you need to know about the June 2026 edition.
What is the OpenRoom Tournament?
The OpenRoom Tournament is a monthly competition where travel groups go head-to-head with their best photo dumps for real prizes. Every month a new edition opens, any group can enter, and the best dumps take the podium. It's a simple idea: take the trip you were already going to take — and turn it into a shot at cash, gear, and free travel.
A way to make money traveling — or travel for free.
You don't have to be a content creator or a travel influencer. You just need a group and a trip. If your group's photo dump wins, the prize can cover what you spent — or put money straight in your pocket. That's the whole point: it's travel you'd do anyway, now with a reward attached.
How it works
Anyone can enter. Book your stay on OpenRoom, through another platform, or just travel to your own place — it doesn't matter how or where you booked.
Sign up and set your roles. Join the tournament, then assign your roles and activities in My Trips with OpenRoles.
Drop your photo dump. Upload your group's photos and compete against every other group in that month's edition.
The jury decides. OpenRoom reviews every dump before it goes live, then our jury picks the winners. (Community voting is coming soon.)
A brand-new edition runs every month, so there's always another shot.
