GGPoker qualifiers now earn cash boosts at 50+ Grosvenor festivals across the UK

May 5, 2026 6 min Read

Playing online doesn’t mean staying home forever. We at GGPoker are proud to announce that we have partnered with Grosvenor Casinos to build a direct pipeline from your screen to the live felt, and the deal comes with real, tangible money attached.

What Is This Partnership?

Grosvenor Casinos operates the UK’s largest live poker network: 35 rooms and more than 50 annual festivals. The partnership with GGPoker covers that entire calendar, including the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT), the Goliath, G200, and G300 events, The UK Open, and The Behemoth.

The core offer: qualify or buy in through GGPoker, and you receive a cash boost on your winnings. It’s a win even before you sit down.

The Cash Boost, Explained

Two tiers, depending on the event:

  • 20% boost on net winnings at the Goliath, G200, and G300 events
  • 10% boost on net winnings at all GUKPT Main Events

The boost applies only when you qualify through GGPoker satellites or buy in directly from your GGPoker account, and is paid out after the event is completed

In practice: cash £2,000 at a G200 event via GGPoker entry, and you walk away with an extra £400 on top.

What’s on the Calendar

Events are already live. Here’s the schedule:

  • GUKPT Luton – May 14-24 (10% cash boost)
  • G200 events in Bolton, Reading, and Walsall – May 26-31 (20% cash boost)
  • The Goliath – July 23 to August 2, Coventry (20% cash boost + exclusive extras)

That last one is the centerpiece.

The Goliath: The Crown Jewel of the Calendar

The Goliath is one of the largest, if not THE largest, live poker tournament outside Las Vegas. The 2026 edition is scheduled to run from July 23 through August 2 at Coventry’s Grosvenor Casino. The event has a £200 buy-in, offers nine Day 1 flights, and will have an estimated £2 million prize pool. The 2025 field hit 12,961 entries, and 2026 is expected to beat it.

GGPoker players get more than just the 20% winnings boost. There’s also an exclusive £5,000 “Last Longer” competition reserved for GGPoker-backed players. The last GGPoker qualifier or buy-in surviving in the tournament will win the pot. And when you add in the incredible GGPoker merchandise and on-site promotional rewards, the trip will be paying dividends before you even sit at the tables.

How to Get a Seat

Satellites for the Goliath and other Grosvenor events are already running in the GGPoker client. Here is what to look for, depending on how you want to enter:

Find all of them in the Tournaments section of the GGPoker app. Satellite schedules for GUKPT and other events will be announced in the coming weeks.

Key Takeaways

  • 50+ events covered: GUKPT, Goliath, G200, G300, UK Open, Behemoth, and more
  • 20% cash boost on winnings at Goliath, G200, and G300 events
  • 10% cash boost on all GUKPT Main Event cashes

  • Exclusive £5,000 Last Longer competition at the Goliath for GGPoker-qualified players only

The Bottom Line

This is a working partnership with real financial upside, not a logo placement. GGPoker players entering Grosvenor events through the platform get better returns on their cashes across a full year of live UK poker. Whether you’re grinding the GUKPT stops or aiming for the Goliath’s massive field, your GGPoker account is now worth more the moment you leave home.

Satellites start at £1. The Goliath starts July 23. There’s no better time to start qualifying.
