WSOP Paradise 2025: Full Schedule, Triton Expansion, and Early-Bird Packages

WSOP Paradise 2025: Full Schedule, Triton Expansion, and Early-Bird Packages

After weeks of speculation, the full schedule for WSOP Paradise 2025 is out — and it’s bigger, bolder, and packed with high-stakes drama. The winter series returns to Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas from December 4 to 18, bringing with it a record $60 million guaranteed Super Main Event, more Triton-branded bracelet events than ever before, and a new mystery bounty opener.

The announcement also introduces new early-bird packages with added perks and reaffirms GGPoker’s key role as the series’ exclusive international satellite partner. If last year’s Paradise edition was ambitious, 2025 is a full-on leap — even Daniel Negreanu says so.

What to Expect at WSOP Paradise 2025

There will be 15 bracelet events this year, with buy-ins ranging from $2,500 to $250,000. The series kicks off with a brand-new $2.5K Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty, offering a $5 million guarantee and automatic entry for all WSOP Circuit ring winners from July through early December.

Triton Poker’s footprint has expanded significantly. After testing the waters with two bracelet events in 2024, the high-stakes brand is now curating six of them, including the $250K Triton Invitational, a $100K PLO Main Event, and the $150K NLH 8-Handed. The presence of multiple six-figure buy-ins under the Triton banner adds a sharper edge to the series.

Of course, the centerpiece is the $25K Super Main Event (Event #11), which boasts a jaw-dropping $60 million guarantee — the largest in poker history. The increase from last year’s $50M guarantee (which resulted in an overlay) hasn’t deterred WSOP or GGPoker, who appear to be doubling down on their ambitions.

Negreanu, who finished 8th in the 2025 WSOP Player of the Year standings, shared his reaction in a video posted to X:

Last year’s $50M guarantee was crazy, but adding another $10M? Absolutely insane. With the new Super Mystery Bounty event and the expanded Triton partnership, this is a can’t-miss festival for players of all levels.

Qualifiers and Packages: How to Get There

WSOP Paradise 2025 is not just a playground for high rollers. GGPoker is expected to send over 1,000 players to the Super Main Event through its satellite system, with WSOP Express and Road to Paradise qualifiers already active in the client.

Another 500+ players are projected to qualify for Event #1 via WSOP Circuit ring wins, both online and live, while ClubGG is preparing to send over 400 more.

GGPoker WSOP Road to Paradise

In a first-of-its-kind partnership, PokerStake will support Circuit Championship winners by covering up to 50% of any unsold Super Main Event action if listed on the staking platform — a move likely to appeal to lower-stakes qualifiers looking to pad their bankrolls.

For those already planning to book their trip, WSOP has introduced two early-bird accommodation packages offering added value:

  • $100K Paradise Package: Includes a 13-night stay (Dec. 5–18), WSOP buffet access, and $500 food & beverage credit. $10K deposit required.
  • $300K VIP Package: Offers 15 nights (Dec. 3–18), buffet access, a $1,000 food & beverage credit, and one daily Triton á la carte meal. Requires a $15K deposit.

Both packages must be fully used for WSOP Paradise buy-ins, and for the first time, resort fees are baked into the package price.

A Festival With Something to Prove

There’s a lot riding on this year’s WSOP Paradise. Last year’s series set the bar with 15 bracelet events, a splashy Triton Invitational, and a surprise Super Main Event champion in Yinan Zhou, who turned a modest live tournament résumé into a $6 million payday.

But 2025 comes with heightened expectations — not only due to the increased prize pool, but also because the festival will once again clash with the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas. With two giants of the poker world going head-to-head in December, the poker calendar isn’t just packed — it’s a battleground.

Further tournament structures, satellite options, and registration info will be released via the WSOP+ app. For now, players can start planning how to make their way to paradise — or at least secure their spot in one of poker’s most ambitious events yet.
