WSOP Paradise 2025 – Historic $60M Guaranteed Main Event
The World Series of Poker (WSOP) has just ended in Las Vegas, but many more exciting WSOP stops are scheduled for the rest of the year.
The third annual WSOP Paradise Winter Festival has been announced, featuring a record-breaking $60,000,000-guaranteed Super Main Event —the highest guaranteed prize pool in the history of live poker tournaments.
The series will transform Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas into a winter poker haven from December 4 to December 18, 2025, in exclusive partnership with GGPoker and Triton Poker.
The Largest Prize Guarantee in Poker History
The highlight of the WSOP Paradise 2026 festival is the No Limit Hold’em Super Main Event Championship. With a buy-in of $25,000 and a guaranteed prize pool of $60 million, this event surpasses last year’s $50 million mark by a remarkable $10 million.
