The UK Poker Championships are set for January 17 to 26 at Dusk Till Dawn. The Main Event posts a £500,000 guarantee with a £500 plus £60 buy-in. 

The next edition of the UK Poker Championships is confirmed for January 17 to January 26 at Dusk Till Dawn. The festival brings a £500,000 guaranteed Main Event. Players enter the headline tournament for £500 plus £60. The announcement marks the formal start of the build up to the event.

UKPC Jan 2026 - Qualifying Route

The qualification path opens at club level. Partners of Dusk Till Dawn have added Main Event seats to recurring tournaments. These seats act as direct entry points into the headline event. Players who secure them move straight into the January lineup without extra cost.

The approach reflects a long standing plan to use club circuits as feeders. The steady flow of seats creates a stable field for the Main Event. It also connects local communities to the larger festival.

More details are expected soon. The guarantee attached to the Main Event places it among the higher profile UK events of the early season. The road to January now starts with each club event that carries an included seat.
