According to poker news site Pokeren.nl, the 2026 WSOP Europe will be held at the King's Hilton in Prague for the first time. This marks the first time the event has moved away from King's Casino in the Czech border town of Rozvadov since its inception, relocating to the capital city of Prague.
King's Hilton is a renowned luxury hotel in Prague, boasting extensive conference and event facilities. While specific tournament dates and schedules have yet to be announced, WSOP Europe typically takes place in the fall. The organizers have not yet issued an official statement regarding the venue change, but Pokeren.nl's report is considered a reliable industry source.
For global poker players, this change may mean more convenient transportation and a richer city experience. Prague, as a popular European tourist destination, has well-developed air and rail networks and a strong poker culture. Meanwhile, the original King's Casino in Rozvadov is famous for hosting WSOP Europe over the years. Whether the 2026 move will be a long-term adjustment remains to be seen.
WSOP Europe is an important extension of the WSOP series in Europe, held annually since 2007 and attracting many top players. This venue change could have some impact on the tournament's scale, participation numbers, and sponsorship.
