Irish Open 2025

PokerStars and Paddy Power will be sponsoring the Irish Open for the third consecutive year. Oh, don’t forget that this time is the event’s 45th anniversary. As you’d imagine, that means you can expect the 2025 stop to be bigger and better than ever, demonstrated by the fact four more days have been added to the schedule.

What does that mean? To begin with, the events you know and love will be back, including the Main Event and hugely successful Mini Irish Open. However, their guarantees have increased – this time, the prize pools are €2,500,000 GTD and €1,000,000 GTD, respectively. Plus, there will be the updated €1,000,000 GTD Mystery Bounty, as well as an updated High Roller series featuring four €5,000 buy-in events and a €10,000 buy-in event.

One thing that won’t change, however, is the incredible atmosphere, with hundreds of poker-lovers set to descend on the Irish capital to revel in the richest poker festival in Ireland. And with satellites and qualifiers ready to offer affordable ways to reach Dublin, the event will be at fever pitch. Records were broken in 2024 – with a stacked schedule, you can expect the same again in 2025.

Festival Dates: April 10-21, 2025
