The Cambridge Open (or sometimes CamO) was an annual open quizbowl tournament written and hosted by the quiz society at the University of Cambridge which ran from 2017 to 2020, after which it was succeeded by the Cambridge & Oxford Open. The tournament usually featured packets consisting of shorter, powermarked NAQT-style tossups, in contrast to the longer and power-less questions seen in the Oxford Open. Difficulty was targeted at 3 dots or slightly harder.
