The purpose of the International Puzzle Party is to provide an annual forum for serious puzzle collectors for the exchange and sale of puzzles, books and related items, as well as for fun and fellowship. In short: puzzling fun for puzzling enthusiasts. International Puzzle Parties have been held almost every year since 1978. IPP's are usually organized in three-year cycles in the USA, the Far East, and Europe.
Attendance at any International Puzzle Party event is by personal invitation only, from the hosting team. This is why the web sites of future IPP's require a password. Please do not advertise future IPP's to people who are not invited; do not even mention the exact locations nor dates.
Hisotrical puzzle party information is password protected, available only to registered IPP invitees.
See above for e-mail links for individual puzzle parties. If you have comments, questions, or suggestions for this site (such as additional links that should be listed above), please free to e-mail the lonely webmaster.
