The coming year marks a significant change to the WSOPC's scheduling, with the management team switching to a calendar-year format for the first time.
"The WSOP Circuit is the lifeblood of our brand, consistently delivering world-class poker and massive prize pools to players across the globe," said Ty Stewart, the Chief Executive Officer of the WSOP. "Shifting to a calendar-year season for 2026 marks a new era of predictability for our players, allowing them to better plan their pursuit of the coveted gold rings."
Those wanting to know where the 2026 WSOP Circuit will take them during the second half of the year will discover this information prior to the 2026 WSOP in Las Vegas.
$5,000 Bonus for Every WSOPC Ring Winner Throughout 2026
Switching to a calendar-year format is not the only change coming the way of WSOPC players in 2026. All gold ring event winners across the 2026 WSOPC season will receive a $5,000 WSOP package, redeemable at either the WSOP Europe or WSOP Paradise festivals, which includes the tournament buy-in and hotel accommodation.
The WSOP urges those heading to a 2026 WSOPC event to download the excellent WSOP+ app to their favorite mobile device. Players can use the WSOP+ app to find real-time data for every event, but the fact that they can register for tournaments via the app is what makes it a must-have for WSOP Circuit grinders.
