The PartyPoker Tour returns to the UK this January, with Sheffield hosting the opening stop of the tour’s second year following a strong debut season in 2025.
Running from January 27 to February 1 at Genting Club Sheffield, the schedule built around accessible buy-ins, and a mix of formats that goes well beyond straight No-Limit Hold’em.
The showstopper is the £500 Main Event carrying a £100,000 guarantee, while the week gets rolling with a £150 Mini Main Event that has £40,000 guaranteed and multiple starting flights across the opening days.
PartyPoker Tour Sheffield Full Schedule
The headline £100,000 Guaranteed Main Event offers four Day 1 flights, including turbo and hyper turbo options, giving players plenty of flexibility across the week.
There’s genuine variety throughout the week, with Big O, Pot-Limit Omaha, H.O.R.S.E., Double Board, and Crazy Pineapple all featuring. The PLO Masters brings its own £20,000 guarantee with four starting flights.
For players targeting the bigger events on a budget, there are Target Stack satellites running daily, awarding seats into the Mini Main Event, Main Event, PLO Masters, and High Roller.
