The dust has barely settled after the 2025 PartyPoker Tour London. Held from April 18-27, PartyPoker made their comeback to the live poker scene, and everyone who was on-site at Aspers Casino could witness that the event was a slam dunk; it was an impeccable affair, and the hype for the upcoming PartyPoker gatherings is perhaps even bigger than it was before London.
The next of the total five stops in the UK is a little over a month away. In June, the PartyPoker Tour will head over to Manchester, where the Manchester235 Casino will roll out the red carpet. PartyPoker just released the schedule for the event, and just like in London, all poker players are in for a treat, including our very own poker.pro branded PLO event! Let’s dissect the schedule and see what Manchester has in store for us.
£500 Main Event Takes the Cake
The 2025 PartyPoker Tour Manchester will be held at the Manchester235 Casino from June 17-22. The schedule features something for everyone, no matter one’s preferred buy-in, and a lot needs to be highlighted.
Let’s start with the cherry on top. The £500 Main Event naturally highlights the schedule. With no less than four starting flights, players are offered ultimate flexibility to take their shot in the Main Event, while also having the opportunity to participate in any of the other exciting tournaments.
Considering the overwhelming success of the London Main Event, expectations are high for the Manchester edition to have similar numbers. In London, 491 entries in the Main Event created a £216,703 prize pool, with £38,403 up top for the winner. Getnet Kassa claimed the win in London, after navigating through a star-spangled field, featuring PartyPoker Team Pros Jaime and Matt Staples, 2023 PartyPoker MILLIONS winner Michel Molenaar, and many more competent players.
Qualify for the 2025 PartyPoker Tour Manchester Main Event
Thanks to PartyPoker, players can secure their £500 Main Event seat in Manchester for a cheaper buck. Online satellites are running continuously online at PartyPoker, starting from as low as £0.20. Join the online qualifiers now to compete for a £1,000 PartyPoker Tour package that will guarantee you the poker adventure of a lifetime.
There’s also the opportunity to qualify for the Main Event through £50 Target Stack Satellites, which will be played live at the Manchester235 Casino during the earlier days of the festival.
Mini Main Event, Mystery Bounty, And poker.pro PLO
The £500 Main Event may be the main course, but, there are many more delicious bites in the Michelin-star menu that is the 2025 PartyPoker Tour Manchester schedule. The £150 Mini Main Event exceeded all expectations in London, and it’s a delight to see that the tournament is coming back to Manchester. With an affordable buy-in and four starting flights, this three-day event guarantees a lot of action – and potentially, a decent profit – for a relatively cheap price.
We, the poker.pro team, are also delighted to once again host a tournament of our own in conjunction with a PartyPoker Tour event. The £100 PLO456 poker.pro Turbo 7-Max will be played June 19, and as the official media partner for the PartyPoker Tour, we’re beyond excited to see some thrilling PLO action.
The £250 Mystery Bounty is, together with the Mini and the Main, one of the three multi-day events that will be going down in Manchester. The thrill of a mystery bounty live poker tournament can not be matched; there are three Day 1-flights in the schedule, and Day 2 will be played on June 22, the last day of the festival.
Make sure to browse the full schedule below; there’s much more to be discovered, for example, the £1,000 High Roller, and some cheaper NLH tournaments.

Players Party Brining the Heat to Manchester
In London, it became very apparent that PartyPoker has gone all out to create a first-class live poker event. Not only was everything great in terms of tournament structures and whatnot, but there was also a lot of fun going on away from the tables.
Those who’d been qualifying online had the opportunity to spin the PartyPoker Wheel of Fortune, competing for prizes such as online tournament tickets, exclusive PartyPoker merchandise, and more. There was also the PartyPoker Tour Conference, where certain poker entities and icons shared insightful thoughts around various poker topics.
Something that was really appreciated by everyone on-site was the Players Party, and there’ll be yet another fun night in Manchester. Rumor has it that the Manchester235 Casino offers the perfect venue for a thrilling atmosphere, and all visitors would be very wise to mark down Friday, June 20, 8:00 p.m., in the calendar. The Players Party will be held in the 235 LIVE Events Room.
All things considered, we’re beyond excited for the second out of the five 2025 PartyPoker Tour stops, and we can’t wait to be on-site at the Manchester235 Casino. If you’re planning to participate in the Manchester event, make sure you’ve filled out an ETA, as it is mandatory for people traveling to and from the UK.
Manchester, get ready. We’ll see you in roughly one month!
