Get ready for a massive two weeks of poker in Nottingham. The UKPC Masters 2026 is officially descending upon Dusk Till Dawn, bringing highly anticipated live action to the tables from June 6 to June 16. 

With massive guarantees on the line and thousands of pounds in added value tickets up for grabs, the festival is primed to be an explosive summer series.

The UKPC Masters 2026 schedule revolves around three major pillars, each offering massive value and high-stakes competition.

• UKPC 500 (June 6–14): £560 Buy-in | £500,000 Guaranteed | Includes 15 x £3,300 UKPC Grand Final seats in the prize pool.

• UKPC Masters Main Event (June 13–16): £1,100 Buy-in | £500,000 Guaranteed | Includes 15 x £3,300 UKPC Grand Final seats in the prize pool.

• UKPC Masters High Roller (June 15–16): £2,200 Buy-in | £200,000 Guaranteed | Includes 6 x £3,300 UKPC Grand Final seats in the prize pool.

While the preliminary events offer incredible value, the festival’s true focal point is the £1,100 UKPC Masters Main Event. Running from June 13 through June 16, this flagship tournament carries a massive £500,000 guarantee.

Designed with a deep structure to reward highly skilled play, the Main Event utilizes multiple Day 1 starting flights scattered throughout the opening days of the festival. Players will battle to survive the opening levels, combining the fields for a dramatic Day 2 and an eventual final table. 

What sets this event apart is the added value: the top 15 finishers will not only receive a massive cash payout but will also walk away with a highly coveted £3,300 ticket to the season-ending UKPC Grand Final.
