The CTP Tournament Experience

Action at Red Space is almost exclusively tournament-driven, catering to Taiwan’s strict legal framework for poker as a sport. The venue regularly sees dozens of tables in action simultaneously, spreading a variety of formats including No-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and Short Deck. During flagship events like the CTP Championship or the Asia Poker League (APL), the room transforms into a wall-to-wall arena of competitive play.

Red Space is perhaps most famous for its role in supporting Taipei’s record-breaking festivals. Last year, it served as a critical secondary venue for the APT Taipei Championship, hosting massive overflow flights and side events that helped cement the series as one of the largest in Asian history. Whether it’s acting as the main stage or a high-capacity overflow hub, the venue is equipped with premium tables, RFID feature table technology, and some of the most experienced tournament staff in the region.


Venue Logistics

📍 Location: Found in the Songshan District of Taipei, the venue is centrally located and easily reachable via the Taipei Metro (MRT) system.

🏨 Accommodations: Being in the heart of the city, there are numerous boutique and high-end hotels within walking distance, specifically catering to the influx of players during major series.

📝 Entry & Membership: As a CTP-managed venue, players must register for a membership card. International players should bring a valid passport for initial sign-up and entry.
