The Festival Weekend series will bring its 2026 season to a close in Latvia, with The Festival Weekend Riga taking place from September 10-13 at the Olympic Voodoo Casino.
The centerpiece of the schedule is the €555 Mystery Bounty Main Event, which offers three Day 1 starting flights, including a turbo option, giving players multiple chances to advance into the later stages of the tournament.
Action begins on Thursday, September 10, with Day 1A at 3 p.m., followed by a standard Day 1B on Friday at 1 p.m. and the faster Day 1C turbo flight at 7 p.m. Surviving players will reconvene for Day 2 on Saturday at noon, playing with 40-minute levels.
Beyond the Main Event, the festival offers a diverse mix of side tournaments, including PLO4/PLO5 BOMB Pot and PKO events, a €200 NLH Progressive Bounty, and OmahaJack. Saturday’s lineup features the €200 NLH 7-2 Estonia Special and a €350 Dealers Choice event spanning PLO Hi-Lo 8, Big O, PLO4, PLO5, and PLO6.
The final day includes the €200 NLH Sunday Brunch, along with a €30 satellite offering two guaranteed €550 seats to The Festival Main Event in Tallinn. A €150 Blackjack Tournament on Thursday, with a winner-takes-all prize pool, adds variety for casino game enthusiasts.
Online satellites are already running on OlyBet Poker, offering hundreds of low-cost seats into the festival across a range of qualifying events.
