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 122 festivals across 18 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 15 festivals in 2026 on record. Coming up: Grand Loyal Poker Championship V 2026 (Jul 29 – Aug 9, Hanoi); Quads Poker Championship II 2026 (Aug 9 – Aug 19, Hanoi); Hai Phong Poker Tour Season I (Aug 13 – Aug 26, Hai Phong); USOP Vietnam HaLong Bay II 2026 (Aug 27 – Sep 9, Hạ Long); RPT Championship IV (Sep 11 – Sep 22, 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.
