This July, poker returns to one of the UK’s most iconic venues as GUKPT London makes its long-awaited comeback at the newly refurbished Grosvenor Victoria Casino, better known simply as “The Vic.” Running from 10th to 19th July 2025, this is more than just another stop on the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour—it marks a milestone moment, as the first GUKPT event held since the venue’s extensive renovation. For players and fans alike, it’s the perfect blend of legacy and renewal, set against the backdrop of central London.
The highlight of the festival will be the £1,110 + £150 GUKPT Main Event, which kicks off with multiple starting flights and features a £250,000 guaranteed prize pool. As the centrepiece of the series, the Main Event is expected to attract a deep and competitive field, delivering the kind of high-stakes excitement that has become synonymous with the GUKPT. Alongside the Main Event, a full schedule of side events, satellites, and bounty tournaments will run throughout the week, catering to all types of players.
What truly elevates this edition of GUKPT London is the chance to experience The Vic in its newest form. The Poker Room has undergone a major transformation, with upgraded furnishings, enhanced lighting, a refreshed layout, and improved player amenities. Already a legendary name in UK poker, The Vic now offers a more modern and premium experience for everyone walking through its doors.
