After the huge success of last year's Summer Festival Malta, PokerStars is heading back to the island for more fun in the sun. 2023's Summer Festival Malta will build on last year's success, featuring 19 events played out between June 27 and July 2.
The Intercontinental Hotel in St Julian’s will play host to the event, situating the poker festival right in the heart of a district full of bars, restaurants, and beachside relaxation. Players who want to combine a little pleasure with their poker will find plenty of tourist and holiday activities. From bust to the beach in no time at all.
The highlights of the Summer Festival Malta include:
The €2,200 High Roller event (starting June 27);
The €1,100 Main Event (starting June 28);
The €330 Cup event (starting June 30);
The €550 Live on Stars event (starting June 30); and
The €5,300 Super High Roller event (starting July 1).
On And Off The Felt
There are plenty of good reasons to enjoy the Summer Festival Malta. The busy week of tourneys means there's always some action going on in a variety of poker variants.
Plus, with many top pros away in Vegas at this time of year, the fields for European festivals are often a little softer.
However, one of the major reasons for the success of poker events in Malta is the variety of activities away from the table. Step outside The Intercontinental Hotel, and you're a short distance from some of Malta's best beaches. There is something for everyone from modern nightclubs to a five-thousand-year-old burial complex, from power boat rentals to leisurely walks through medieval castles.
The local food scene is excellent, and the weather in the summer is blue-sky perfect — though with highs of 32oC, you will definitely want to remember your high SPF sunblock.
