Poker festivals in Las Vegas

Before you go

Las Vegas for tournament players

It all started here, in 1970, at Binion’s Horseshoe in Downtown Las Vegas. The first World Series of Poker brought together seven invited players, and the champion was elected by his peers. Legend has it that each of them first voted for himself, and that it took a vote for second-best to name Johnny Moss. The WSOP has since passed through the Rio before settling on the Strip in 2022, at Horseshoe and Paris. In 2023, the Main Event topped 10,000 players for the first time.

The WSOP still sets the pace for the whole city. From late May to mid-July, most of the big poker rooms run their summer festivals at the same time: Wynn, Aria, Venetian, MGM Grand, Orleans, South Point, Golden Nugget… That’s when you get the widest choice, from sub-$100 tournaments to six-figure high rollers. To give you an idea, our calendar showed nearly five times as many tournaments in June 2026 as in September.

The rest of the year, Vegas keeps dealing. The Venetian runs its DeepStack series almost every month, and since 2022 Wynn has hosted the WPT World Championship at the end of each year. If you can’t make it in summer, that’s the time to aim for.

Once you’re there, don’t stick to the Strip. Downtown has its own poker rooms, and the Orleans, a locals’ casino west of the Strip, runs some of the best-rated low buy-in tournaments on our calendar. To get from one to the other, plan on a car or a rideshare. One last thing: you must be 21 (that’s Nevada law) and show photo ID to register. If you’re coming from abroad, your passport will do.

Ratings: know which tournament is worth its buy-in

Hearts (1 to 5) judge the structure against the price: the higher the buy-in, the better it has to be. SPTS measures how deep the starting stack is and how long the levels last. With Pro you get every rating, and you can filter the schedule with them. Every day, at least one rating is free on this page.
