Discover the WSOP Circuit: A Global Gateway to Poker Glory

The WSOP Circuit is a live poker tour created in 2005 to expand the reach of the World Series of Poker beyond Las Vegas . Instead of awarding the iconic gold bracelets, each official event on the Circuit awards a WSOP gold ring, which has become a respected symbol of regional poker excellence.
Over the years, the WSOP-C has grown into a year-round global series, with stops in the United States, Canada , Europe, and other parts of the world. These festivals are hosted at major casinos and typically feature 12 to 18 ring events, including a Main Event with significant prize pools and high player turnout.
The tour attracts a wide mix of local regulars, ambitious newcomers, and seasoned professionals - all chasing rings, recognition, and qualification for the WSOP Tournament of Champions, an exclusive invite-only freeroll for ring and bracelet winners.
In 2024, GGPoker - now the global owner of the WSOP brand - has further strengthened the Circuit’s reach by hosting online ring events, making it possible for players to win official WSOP gold rings without ever stepping into a casino.
Many of today’s poker stars earned their first major victories on the WSOP Circuit. With hundreds of rings awarded annually and more opportunities than ever before, the Circuit remains a vital platform for aspiring champions - and a true bridge to the big stage.
