You Are Invited to Join the World’s Biggest Marble & Treasure Hunt

THE WORLD’S BIGGEST MARBLE HUNT

10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY — A NEW WORLD RECORD IN MARBLE & TREASURE HUNTING

For 10 years, the World's Biggest Marble Hunt has turned handmade art marbles into real-world treasure.

What began in 2016 grew into a worldwide movement, with handmade marbles hidden around the world for the public to discover.

Now, for the 10-Year Anniversary, the marble community is taking that tradition to an entirely new level.

289 REGISTERED TREASURE CHESTS — AND CLIMBING

$43,297 IN DONATED HANDMADE MARBLES AND TREASURES — AND CLIMBING

These are the current totals, with more treasure chests and donations being registered before the June 24 deadline.

Previous organized treasure-hunt records have already been surpassed, making this the largest organized worldwide treasure hunt built around hundreds of individual treasure chests hidden as part of one coordinated event.

Alongside the treasure chests, numerous marble hunts will also take place around the world, making this the largest organized marble hunt ever held.

Hundreds of treasure chests. Handmade marble art. One worldwide anniversary adventure.

REGISTRATION EXTENDED THROUGH JUNE 24, 2026

Marble artists, collectors, groups, hunters, and hiders have four more days to register additional treasure chests.

Your treasure chest does not need to be finished when you register. Registration is simply your commitment to participate, and you will still have nearly a month to prepare it before the hunt begins on Thursday, July 23, 2026.

Register one treasure chest or several. Participants will be listed on the World's Biggest Marble Hunt website and may also be included in announcements, press releases, and news coverage.

REGISTER BY JUNE 24 TO BE INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL COUNT

FROM ONE LEGENDARY TREASURE CHEST TO HUNDREDS

In 2022, 158 leading glass and marble artists, along with the Corning Museum of Glass, helped create the legendary treasure chest containing $45,000 worth of handmade art marbles.

That single treasure chest made marble and glass history.

For the 10-Year Anniversary, we are taking that idea in an entirely new direction:

HUNDREDS OF TREASURE CHESTS FILLED WITH HANDMADE MARBLE ART

HIDDEN AROUND THE WORLD AS PART OF ONE ORGANIZED EVENT

This time, instead of one major treasure chest, artists, collectors, hunters, and hiders are creating hundreds of separate treasure-hunting adventures around the world.

Numerous individual marble hunts will also take place as part of the anniversary celebration, giving the public even more opportunities to discover handmade marble art.

TREASURE CHESTS FILLED WITH HANDMADE ART

Each official anniversary treasure chest must contain at least three handmade contemporary art marbles, but many will include much more.

Participants may add additional handmade marbles, artwork, collectibles, and other family-friendly surprises to create something people will remember for years.

These are not ordinary toy marbles. They are individually handmade pieces of contemporary glass art created by talented artists. Many are unique, collectible, and completely one of a kind.

Treasure chests may be hidden anywhere in the world. Open the marble cases, find those special handmade pieces, and turn them into an adventure someone will never forget.

THE WORLD IS INVITED TO HUNT

On June 24, the official public announcement will invite people around the world to join the World's Biggest Marble Hunt community, follow the clues, explore new places, and search for these extraordinary treasures.

The worldwide 10-Year Anniversary hunt begins:

THURSDAY, JULY 23, 2026

Hundreds of treasure chests filled with handmade art marbles and other surprises will be hidden around the world, along with numerous individual marble hunts for the public to enjoy.

Participation is completely free. There is no entry fee, charge, or purchase required.

This is one coordinated worldwide event made up of hundreds of treasure-chest adventures and marble hunts across many communities and locations.

To keep the anniversary fair and open to as many people as possible, each person may find one anniversary treasure chest unless they have hidden three or more official anniversary treasure chests. Please see the official rules for complete details.

A WORLDWIDE PAY-IT-FORWARD MOVEMENT

The World's Biggest Marble Hunt has always been about more than finding treasure.

It is about artists, collectors, hunters, and hiders sharing handmade art with the world and giving someone else the unforgettable experience of discovering something truly special.

Over the past decade, the movement has introduced thousands of people to handmade contemporary art marbles, created new collectors, supported artists, and grown into a worldwide community of more than 65,000 people.

That is the magic of the World's Biggest Marble Hunt:

Handmade art. Adventure. Family fun. Community. Paying it forward.
