The Festival brand is certainly well known to European poker players, and soon all fans will have double reason to rejoice. In the first half of September, The Festival will be moving to Malta, bringing great entertainment and the best poker to Malta. You can look forward to 45 poker tournaments, in a variety of buy-ins and formats, headlined by the €550 Main Event.
Even before the aforementioned Malta event, the online version of The Festival will also take place, hosted by iPoker operator. The tournaments and events of this series will be interlinked with overall leaderboards and enhanced with daily missions that will make it easy to earn tournament tickets or a Malta package!

During each day of the online festival (August 3-19), you can take part in different missions, which are divided into five types.
- Low Mission - Daily missions for low-limit players will be presented each day, rewarding you with a €55 ticket to the Online Main Event (€100,000 GTD)
