FAQ

Where does this calendar get its data, and how often is it updated?
The calendar is aggregated automatically every day from public sources, currently tracking 131 festivals across 20 countries in 2026. Dates and venues can change late — always double-check the organizer's official channels before booking flights or hotels.
Which festivals run in Vietnam in 2026?
Vietnam hosts 17 festivals in 2026 on record. Coming up: RPT Championship IV (Sep 11 – Sep 22, Hanoi); GLPC Ultimate Showdown 2026 (Nov 19 – Nov 30, Hanoi); RPT Championship Grand Final (Dec 1 – Dec 12, Hanoi); QPC Winter 2026 (Dec 12 – Dec 23, Hanoi).
Which festival should a beginner start with?
Pick one close to home to keep travel costs down, enter the smaller buy-in side events early in the series, and only bring money you can afford to lose — basic bankroll discipline. Read Gemmy's poker guide before your first live series.
How much are the buy-ins?
This calendar shows festival-level dates and venues. A festival usually bundles dozens of events across a wide buy-in range, and organisers publish the full structure close to the start date — check the festival’s official channels for exact numbers.
What does the bright gold bar in the timeline mean?
That festival is running today. A ← arrow means it started last month; a → arrow means it continues into next month.
