The Festival Weekend Brings Unique Poker and Casino Action to Tallinn This July
Fresh from a successful stop in Vilnius, The Festival now turns its attention to Tallinn, where Festival Weekend will take place at Olympic Park Casino from July 1–5.
One of Europe’s well-known poker brands for many players, The Festival will bring five days packed with poker, casino competitions, cash games, and entertainment to the Estonian capital.
Created with recreational players in mind, The Festival has built a strong reputation across Europe by offering much more than a traditional poker festival. Instead of focusing solely on tournament poker, the concept combines poker, casino games, social activities, and entertainment into one complete festival experience.
The upcoming Festival Weekend in Tallinn will feature more than 20 events, ranging from popular NLH and PLO tournaments to mixed game formats and special side events rarely seen on local schedules.
The €555 Main Event will once again headline the series, but the schedule offers far more than a single championship tournament. Players will have opportunities to compete in Mystery Bounty events, mixed games, satellites, and a variety of formats designed to appeal to different types of players.
Among the highlights will be the debut of the NLH 7-2 Estonia Special (incl. INES Rule), a unique format that originated in Estonia and has recently been introduced to the wider Festival community. In addition to standard No-Limit Hold’em action, players holding the famous 7-2 offsuit can earn special rewards from the entire tournament field when winning a hand under specific conditions. The tournament also includes the INES Rule, giving players a unique one-time opportunity to re-enter after late registration has closed.
What makes The Festival unique, however, is its commitment to bringing together all parts of the casino experience under one roof. Alongside the poker schedule, players will also be able to compete in dedicated casino competitions, including Blackjack, Roulette, Slots, and Sportsbook tournaments, creating additional opportunities to win prizes and enjoy the festival atmosphere away from the poker tables.
Cash games are expected to run throughout the series, while players from Estonia and abroad gather at Olympic Park Casino for what promises to be one of the most diverse gaming weekends of the summer.
Whether players are chasing trophies, hunting bounties, battling in mixed games, spinning the Roulette wheel, testing their skills in Blackjack, or simply enjoying the social atmosphere that has become synonymous with The Festival brand, Festival Weekend Tallinn aims to offer something for everyone.
The Festival Weekend takes place from July 1–5, 2026, at Olympic Park Casino Tallinn.
