5 Million GTD Festival in Malta (16 – 16 January 2026)

The upcoming 5 Million GTD Festival at Portomaso Casino brings together some of the most influential brands in European poker. This edition is the result of a collaborative effort between leading tours, established poker rooms, and internationally recognised festival organisers—all united to create one of the biggest events of the winter season.

This festival is co-produced and supported by:

This event traditionally delivers the largest fields and the most memorable moments of the festival.
