WSOP Circuit returns to Paris in 2026

A few weeks after Aix-en-Provence, the prestigious World Series of Poker Circuit will once again stop in France, this time at the future Partouche Casino Club in Paris, in partnership with the Groupe Partouche and Texapoker. Two years after the first Paris edition, this exceptional festival will take place from September 1 to 13, 2026, featuring 12 tournaments awarding WSOPC rings, highlighted by the highly anticipated €1,500 Main Event. As in Aix-en-Provence, PMU.fr will serve as the online partner of the event, offering a Ring Online event and qualifying satellites.

“After Aix-en-Provence, the close collaboration between Groupe Partouche, the World Series of Poker and Texapoker continues in France with this upcoming Paris stop,” said Apo Chantzis, founder and CEO of Texapoker. “The future Partouche Casino Club will be the ideal venue to host an event of this international scale. I would also like to thank WSOP Director Gregory Chochon for his continued trust, and we look forward to working closely with the teams of the Partouche Casino Club.”

“After a successful first stop in Paris in 2024, we are very proud to continue and expand the presence of the WSOP Circuit in the capital,” added Gregory Chochon, COO of the WSOP. “Paris is an iconic city for gaming and entertainment in Europe, and this new stop clearly represents a step forward for the circuit. This event continues our collaboration with Groupe Partouche, now an essential reference in the European casino industry. Their expertise and know-how rival the greatest establishments in Las Vegas, and we are honored to organize this event at the future Partouche Casino Club.”

The festival will feature a diverse schedule including 12 Ring Events, among them a WSOPC Online ring to be won on PMU.fr, as well as side events and qualifying satellites designed to welcome players of all levels. In addition, every WSOPC ring winner will receive a $5,000 package for the WSOP Paradise Bahamas, offered by the WSOP franchise.

“We are also delighted to continue this journey with Texapoker, our trusted partner in France and across Europe,” added Gregory Chochon. “The quality of their teams, their professionalism and their high standards perfectly match the expectations of the World Series of Poker. Over the years, they have become much more than a partner: they are truly part of the WSOP family.”

More information, reservations and the full schedule will be announced soon.
