The Grosvenor UK Poker Tour is the long-standing live poker tournament series organized by the British casino group Grosvenor Casinos. In 2027, the GUKPT will set out on its 20th tour across the United Kingdom. A total of twelve major festival dates are planned for the anniversary season: nine regular GUKPT tour stops and three additional major events.
Just this past weekend, the GUKPT Main Event in Blackpool came to a close. In addition, the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour is gearing up for the grand season finale in London. Organizer Grosvenor Poker has now announced the tournament schedule for the coming year. The GUKPT was launched in 2007 and has since become a fixture on the British poker calendar.
The anniversary season kicks off from January 14–24, 2027, with the GUKPT Festival at “The Victoria” casino in London. The tour then moves to Manchester from February 4 to 14, where the 200th GUKPT event will mark another milestone. In March, the UK Open in Coventry (March 4–14) will be the first major festival outside the regular GUKPT series. In April, the tour returns to London for another stop. From April 8 through 18, play will once again take place at “The Victoria,” before the GUKPT Festival in Luton (May 9–16) is on the calendar in May.
A special highlight of the summer is the Goliath Festival in Coventry, which takes place from July 22 through August 1. In August, the GUKPT then heads to Glasgow (August 5–15). In September, the tour will stop in Luton again (September 2–12), before Leeds hosts another GUKPT festival from October 7 to 17. At the end of October, Blackpool (October 28 through November 7) will host the penultimate regular tour stop.
The grand season finale will then take place from November 18 to 28, once again at “The Victoria” in London. The GUKPT Grand Final will determine who can cap off the anniversary season with a victory. The Behemoth Festival in Coventry, taking place from December 6 to 12, will bring the entire poker year to a close. The 2027 events will be presented under the joint banner of Grosvenor Poker and GGPoker.
