Casino Malta is proud to announce that, for the first time in history, the prestigious World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) will take place in Malta.

In collaboration with Texapoker, this landmark festival will run from September 25th to October 5th, featuring 12 official WSOP Circuit Ring Events and culminating in a highly anticipated WSOPC Main Event.

This historic debut represents a major milestone for the Maltese poker scene and further strengthens Malta’s position as one of Europe’s leading live poker destinations.

The partnership between Casino Malta and Texapoker combines international operational expertise with a world-class venue, ensuring a premium poker experience for players from across Europe and beyond.

The festival will offer a diverse schedule of ring events, side tournaments, and satellite qualifiers, designed to accommodate players of all levels. With professional production standards, experienced tournament staff, and the prestige of the WSOP gold ring on the line, the series is expected to attract a strong international field.

As an added highlight, every Ring Event champion will be awarded an exclusive $5,000 package to WSOP Bahamas, taking their victory to one of poker’s most prestigious destinations and giving them the opportunity to compete for a coveted WSOP Gold Bracelet.

Malta’s central Mediterranean location, excellent flight connectivity, vibrant hospitality scene, and ideal late-summer climate make it the perfect setting for this major poker celebration.

To support players planning their trip, special hotel rates have been secured for the duration of the festival. Players are encouraged to book early to secure the best available accommodation.
