From grassroots competitions to international clashes, we've built a legacy of competitive gaming that grows bigger every year.
The GG Coins Story
2025 marked a historic first: instead of traditional prize pools, Insomnia Egypt introduced GG Coins: real limited-edition gold coins designed exclusively for the festival.
Each GG Coin represented not just a reward, but a collector's piece of Insomnia Egypt history
Coins became the talk of the community, symbolising victory, prestige, and legacy
Winners proudly showed off their gold, and fans scrambled to get their hands on this year's most coveted piece of gaming culture
For 2026, the story continues! More tournaments. More wins. More gold.
Play. Win. Claim your gold.
What's Next for 2026?
We'll be announcing the full 2026 tournament line-up very soon. Expect bigger prize pools, new titles, and even more international competition.
Stay tuned, train hard, and get ready to level up.
