GGPoker has unveiled the schedule for the 2026 WSOP Online International festival, running from August 16 through September 29. Over the six-week series, players will compete for 33 WSOP gold bracelets.

The schedule features more than $69 million in guaranteed prize pools across the festival. The $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event headlines the schedule with a $25 million guarantee.

GGPoker will also distribute $5 million through special promotions during the series. With buy-ins ranging from $100 to $25,000, the festival caters to every bankroll tier.

It also gives players worldwide an accessible route to major online hardware outside traditional US online poker sites.

Major Guaranteed Events Headline the 2026 WSOP Online Schedule

GGPoker has included several major tournaments across the 33-event schedule, with millions of dollars available throughout the series.

The $300 Gladiators of Poker will feature a $3 million prize pool. Meanwhile, the $500 Mini Main Event boasts a $5 million baseline.

Players can also enter the ¥800 WSOP Asia Championship, which promises ¥25 million in prizes. The $1,500 Millionaire Maker adds another $5 million to the schedule.

The Millionaire Maker offers an additional incentive because its champion will receive at least $1 million.

Next, the $250 Mystery Millions brings a $10 million prize pool. Its top mystery bounty will also reach $1 million.

The $400 Colossus adds another $5 million to the festival's promised pools. The $400 PLOSSUS also gives Pot-Limit Omaha players access to a $2 million prize pool.

Finally, the $10,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers offers a $10 million baseline. The $5,000 Main Event remains the festival's biggest tournament, with $25 million reserved for its prize pool.

Event Buy-in Guarantee
Gladiators of Poker $300 $3 million
Flip & Go $100 $1 million
Mini Main Event $500 $5 million
WSOP Asia Championship ¥800 ¥25 million
Millionaire Maker $1,500 $5 million
Mystery Millions $250 $10 million
Colossus $400 $5 million
PLOSSUS $400 $2 million
WSOP Online Main Event $5,000 $25 million
GGMillion$ High Rollers $10,000 $10 million

The broader schedule ranges from $100 events to a $25,000 High Roller Championship. It also includes several Pot-Limit Omaha and bounty tournaments.

GGPoker Adds $5 Million in Promotional Value

GGPoker has committed another $5 million to three promotions alongside the bracelet events.

The largest component is the $3 million Continental Flipouts promotion. Players will join one of four global regions, including the Americas, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Eurasia.

After each bracelet event, eligible players from the winner's region enter a corresponding Flipout. Each Flipout can award up to $250,000.

GGPoker has also allocated $1 million toward its Super Pass Bonus. Every bracelet winner receives a $30,000 Super Pass.

The pass guarantees entry into the WSOP Paradise Super Main Event in the Bahamas.

The final $1 million will fund country-exclusive Ranking Freerolls. The top 10 nations on the final Bracelet Leaderboard will qualify.

Each country's freeroll prize pool will depend on its final ranking.

Major Prizes Await in the WSOP Online Main Event

The $5,000 WSOP Online Main Event represents the festival's biggest individual tournament.

GGPoker has guaranteed at least $25 million for the event. Day 2 is scheduled for September 21, while the final table follows on September 22.

The 2025 edition attracted 5,961 entries and created a $28.31 million prize pool. Benjamin "bencb789" Rolle ultimately won $3,900,707 and the bracelet.

If registration trends follow previous years, the 2026 Main Event could easily blow past its $25 million baseline. However, it isn't the only route to a seven-figure payday during the festival.

The Millionaire Maker guarantees at least $1 million for first place. The Mystery Millions offers another route to a $1 million payday through its top mystery bounty.

Meanwhile, the $10,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers carries a $10 million prize pool. Its final table will close the festival on September 29.

GGPoker will also provide live coverage throughout the festival. The Main Event final table will stream on GGPoker.tv with Jeff Gross and Phil Hellmuth.

A Brief History of the WSOP Online International Festival

The international WSOP Online series began in 2020 after the live Las Vegas festival was postponed. GGPoker hosted the international portion, allowing players outside the US to compete for official bracelets online.

That inaugural international series featured 54 bracelet events. It awarded nearly $148 million across the tournaments.

The $5,000 Main Event generated a record $27.56 million prize pool. Stoyan Madanzhiev won the event and collected $3.9 million.

The series continued after live WSOP tournaments returned to Las Vegas. By 2021, the international schedule had settled at 33 bracelet events.

The format has since become an annual part of the WSOP calendar. The 2025 edition awarded more than $100 million across its 33 bracelet events, with over $354 million paid out across the broader festival schedule according to GGPoker.

Now, the 2026 edition will continue that tradition with 33 bracelets and more than $69 million in guarantees.

The $25 million Main Event will again serve as the centerpiece. Meanwhile, the added promotions give players more ways to win beyond the tournament tables.
