EPT Barcelona 2025: Poker, Paradise, and PokerListings Presence!

The Heartbeat of Summer Poker

Mark your calendars: August 18-31, 2025. The capital of European football is calling: it’s shouting with sun, sangria, and serious buy-ins. Hosted at the iconic Casino Barcelona, this festival is where it all takes place, where champions are being separated from the grinders.

Whether you’re chasing your first big score or you’re a high-stakes regular looking to add another trophy to the shelf, EPT Barcelona has something with your name on it.

Let’s talk numbers:

• PokerStars Open: August 18-24 – €1,650
• PokerStars Cup: August 22-23 – €825
• PokerStars Open High Roller: August 23-25 – €2,700
• EPT Super High Roller: August 23-25 – €100,000
• EPT Main Event: August 24-31 – €5,300
• EPT Mystery Bounty: August 27-29 – €3,250
• EPT High Roller: August 29-31 – €10,300

From six-figure buy-ins to mystery bounty madness, to the EPT Main Event and the PokerStars Open, everything is included in this delicious smoothy! We literally cannot wait to be running around with our cameras and see what Barcelona has in store for us. We tend to believe that for players it’s the same vibe!

Beyond the Felt

EPT Barcelona isn’t just about playing cards, though. It’s about the culture. Step outside the venue and you’ve got world-class tapas restaurants, rooftop bars, and some of Europe’s best nightlife scenes ready to deliver electric nights. Want to remain calmer? Barcelona houses a legion of famous museums as well.

Walk the walk, talk the talk. Check the sunset on the beach, lose yourself on the Rambla, or sip some fancy drinks in a hidden plaça. Poker is the reason you came to Barcelona for, but it’s not the reason why you’ll want to stay!

PokerListings Will Be There. Will You?

Now, here’s where things get extra spicy. From August 25-31, during the epic Main Event run, PokerListings will be live on the scene, bringing you exclusive behind-the-scenes content, unscripted moments, and interviews you will not want to miss.

Representing the squad will be none other than Melvin Schroen, our Social Media Manager and hype man-in-chief, alongside the ever-charismatic Vaclav “Lemon Poker” Dusek. Expect the unexpected — from raw reactions and mid-hand breakdowns to some truly funky interviews with the game’s biggest names (and maybe a few wildcards you haven’t heard of… yet).

Make sure to come and say hello, ola, bonjour, or Guten Tag. We’ll be following the action so you can enjoy content at its finest from your phone, tablet, or TV. We won’t be visiting the event just to cover poker; we’re telling the stories that matter. Fasten your seatbelts!
