Leading poker publication Bluff Europe has announced that its fourth annual Poker In The Park festival will take place on September 2 and 3 with upwards of 20,000 fans expected to converge on London’s Leicester Square.

The festival’s previous edition in August featured two days of free lectures from some of the biggest names in poker including world champions Jamie Gold and Peter Eastgate. Punters were also able to jump into freeroll sit-and-go competitions running around-the-clock while battling it out for the title of Heads-Up Champion on state-of-the-art electronic tables.
As well as live sit-and-go competitions running around-the-clock, visitors to Leicester Square in September can expect numerous free strategy talks from some of the world’s top players alongside autograph signings, cut-price deals on the latest books and merchandise and special celebrity guests including current WBF World Champion Evander Holyfield demonstrating the software behind RealDealPoker.com.
“Last year’s Poker In The Park went through the roof,” said Michael Caselli, Editor-In-Chief for Bluff Europe.
“A lot of people were impressed and have been beating down our door to be involved this year and that puts us in the position to offer even more.”
