The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is wrapping up 2024 down in The Bahamas with WSOP Paradise, but they’re already looking ahead to the New Year by announcing the dates for the 56th Annual WSOP in Las Vegas.
For the fourth consecutive year, the summer WSOP will take place at the Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas. The series will run from May 27 to July 16, 2025, while the $10,000 Main Event will start on July 2 with the final table taking place between July 15-16 inside the Horseshoe Events Center.
“Each year allows us to refine further and improve the WSOP offering, and 2025 will be no exception,” WSOP CEO Ty Stewart said in a press release. “Expect the biggest poker events on the planet, the best action, and the most intense competition as we once again welcome tens of thousands of poker enthusiasts eager to experience the magic of the WSOP.”
While the WSOP was purchased by GGPoker earlier this year, things will largely be business as usual this summer thanks to a licensing agreement with Caesars Entertainment.
“As the calendar flips to 2025, we’re looking forward to inviting the global poker community back to the iconic Las Vegas Strip for the 56th annual World Series of Poker,” said Jack Effel, Senior Vice President of Poker Operations and WSOP at Caesars Entertainment. “Building on last year’s triumphs and familiar faces winning WSOP bracelets, we are excited to see who will expand their legacy or become a new legend by passing poker’s ultimate test in the game’s most iconic arena.”
While the full schedule won’t be released until early 2025 – traditionally in either February or March – the WSOP confirmed that “fan favorite” events such as the Mystery Millions, Millionaire Maker, and the Senior’s Championship are all set to return. They also hinted there will be “some new, exciting tournament formats.”
WSOP satellites outside the U.S. will be exclusively held at GGPoker beginning in January. Online pre-registration will open after all events have been determined and approved by regulators.
Reduced room rates will be available across Caesars Entertainment’s Las Vegas resorts for the series by visiting www.caesars.com and using promo code WSOP25. Players and guests should stay tuned to WSOP social media channels and WSOP.com for updates on the 2025 WSOP.
