1970 World Snooker Championship

The 1970 Player's No.6 World Snooker Championship snooker tournament took place in April 1970 and like the previous year the final was at the Victoria Hall, London, England. For the second and last time, the event was sponsored by Player's No.6.

Ray Reardon won in the final 37–33 against John Pulman. This year was the first of Reardon's six world titles; he held the title for only seven months until the next championship in Australia during November 1970. Reardon also made the highest break of the tournament with 118.
