PartyPoker Tour Heads Overseas in 2026 After Breakout Debut Season
Table Of Contents
After a successful launch year that saw every stop hosted on UK soil, the PartyPoker Tour is officially going international. The operator has confirmed four headline stops for 2026 across the UK and Spain, with more destinations expected to be added as the season unfolds.
PartyPoker is pushing hard to grow its live footprint next year. The brand plans to send an incredible 2,000 online qualifiers onto the live felt and will continue to offer low buy-ins across its three core events: a £500 Main Event, a £150 Championship and a £1,000 High Roller. The schedule also includes a £250 PLO Masters Main Event, which was one of the most popular formats during the 2025 debut season.
With giveaways, live streaming and plenty of on-site surprises, the tour is shaping up to be one of the most player-friendly circuits on the 2026 live calendar.
Four Stops Confirmed for the 2026 PartyPoker Tour
The tour begins in Sheffield before heading to Spain for back-to-back festivals in Seville and Madrid. It then returns to the UK for a mid-summer stop in Manchester.
Here are the confirmed dates:
- Sheffield: 27 January-1 February 2026
- Seville: 17-22 March, 2026
- Madrid: 12-17 May, 2026
- Manchester: 16-21 June, 2026
Rewards, Surprises and Full Live Streams
Players can expect plenty of extras at each festival. That includes merch giveaways, a spin-the-wheel game offering prizes such as seats to the £500 Main Event, and appearances from well-known poker personalities.
All Main Event feature-table action will be streamed live on YouTube, allowing railbirds to follow friends and qualifiers from anywhere.
