The 2010 Pacific Curling Championships were held from November 16 to the 23, 2010 in Uiseong, South Korea. The Pacific Championships act as the qualifiers for the 2011 World Curling Championships. The top two women's berths moved on to the 2011 Capital One World Women's Curling Championship in Esbjerg, Denmark, while the top two men's berths moved on to the 2011 Ford World Men's Curling Championship in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.

The teams participating in the Pacific Curling Championships first played in a double round-robin where each team played against the other teams twice. The top 4 of each group (men's or women's) moves on to the playoffs. The playoffs include a semifinals round and a finals round. In the semifinals round, the winner is determined with a best-of-five series, the first two games of which are taken from the round robin games. The winners of these best-of-five series then play against each other in the final match.
