CPG Championship Final Sanya 2025: Event Details & Venue
🃏 CPG Championship Finals Sanya 🃏
📍 Venue: Howard Johnson Resort Sanya, Hainan Island, China
📅 Date: August 20-29, 2025
China Poker Games, widely regarded as the king of Freezeout events in Asia, is gearing up for its grandest annual spectacle – the CPG Championship Finals. Now in its 13th year, the ten-day poker celebration will take over the tropical paradise of Sanya, Hainan Island from August 20 to 29 hosted at the Howard Johnson Resort.
Year after year, this flagship event attracts thousands of players, and this season is expected to bring the largest gathering of Chinese poker players to date. While CPG traditionally draws a predominantly local field, a growing wave of international talent have been joining the action. Last year, Vietnam’s Nguyen Ngoc Dai captured a side event trophy and even global star Daniel “Jungleman” Cates made an appearance.
As for numbers, in 2023, the festival prize pool soared to a shocking CNY 100 Million (~USD 13.8 Million) with the Championship Finals alone amassing ~USD 6.5 Million with its record 4,406 entries. In 2024, the headliner was just as impressive with 4,080 entries for a prize pool of roughly USD 5.5 Million.
Beyond the eye-popping numbers,, what truly sets CPG apart from other brands in Asia is its signature fusion of poker competition with the leisure and allure of Sanya and its gorgeous surroundings and beaches. The result is a festival atmosphere that feels more like a vacation paradise than your usual tournament grind.
