Tallinn Hosts Another Major Poker Weekend
Queens of Tallinn takes place at Hilton Tallinn Park, which is directly connected to Olympic Park Casino. The hotel sits between Tallinn's medieval Old Town and Kadriorg Park, with both within walking distance.
The venue has become a regular home for major Baltic poker festivals, including Kings of Tallinn and the WSOP Circuit Tallinn. Queens of Tallinn gives the same tournament setting a different focus, with the majority of its schedule reserved for women and a Team Challenge running alongside the individual events.
Tallinn itself adds a familiar backdrop for travelling players. Its medieval Old Town has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1997 and remains one of the city's defining landmarks.
