Looks like a general tournament setting. Events seem to include kata and kumite (not sure what kind of kumite though).

I got he following info here:

"The WKF Karate1 Premier League (WPL) is the prime league event in the world of Karate. Together with the WKF Karate1 World Cup (WWC) it is a series of world class Karate competitions recognized and supported by the World Karate Federation. It is the only series of world class Karate competitions recognized and supported by the World Karate Federation.

 

Its aim is to bring together the best Karate competitors in the world in a series of open championships of unprecedented scale and quality.

 

In addition to the World Championships, which are biennial events, the Karate1 provides a platform for staging world Karate events on a regular basis and thus enhances interest of the public and the media, both nationally and worldwide. For Karate practitioners and enthusiasts around the world Karate1 acts as a source of identification, motivation and inspiration.

 

The hosting countries get the chance to present themselves to a wide audience, while giving their athletes the opportunity of competing at the highest level.

 

And, last but not least, the top Karate athletes of the world obtain an additional platform to compete, improve their skills, attract sponsors and create income.

The WKF ID card can be purchased at the official registration session of each Karate1 event.

 

The medalists in every category receive prize money.

 

Competitors can earn ranking points in every Karate1 event according to the official WKF Karate1 ranking system.

 

The competitor of each category with the highest score at the end of the Karate1 season is called the Grand Winner and receives extra prize money."
