Ping It On is an agency-exclusive ping pong tournament that celebrates the unique cultures and competitive spirit of the trailer industry.
For the Community We've Built.
Beyond the screens, our industry is fueled by a competitive energy only those of us in the room truly understand. Hosted by Create, PIO26 is an invitation to bring that spirit out of the studio and onto the court.
It's more than a competition; it's a rare moment to honor our shared craft and celebrate the high-stakes community that makes this work possible.
Thank You to Our 2025 Sponsors
Twice the Sight, Double the Fight.
For the 2026 tournament, we are pivoting to the power of the pair. This is about teamwork, synchronized strategy, and the shared intuition that drives every great edit. The doubles format amplifies the collaborative spirit that defines our industry where two minds working in harmony create something greater than the sum of their parts.
