PokerStars Festival

The PokerStars Festival was a series of global poker tournaments which began in 2016. The formation of the series was announced in August 2016, when PokerStars revealed that the European Poker Tour and other poker tours were being rebranded. Thirteen tournament festivals were played in the inaugural season, in the North America, Europe, South America and Asia. PokerStars also announced another series of tournaments, PokerStars Championship, which features higher buy-in events. The series was discontinued after the second season.

Future

On December 15, 2017, PokerStars announced that it will bring back regional tour brands in 2018. These include the European Poker Tour, Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT), and Latin American Poker Tour (LAPT). Therefore, the PokerStars Festival label will no longer be used.
