The series, now in its third year, is scheduled to run Dec. 3-23 at the luxurious Las Vegas Strip resort.
“We are ecstatic to continue our partnership with the World Poker Tour for the third consecutive year,” said Ryan Beauregard, executive director of poker operations at Wynn Las Vegas. “Over the coming months, we’ll work diligently to craft an event schedule poker players from all over the world won’t want to miss.”

Recapping the 2023 WPT World Championship
Dan Sepiol after winning the 2023 WPT World Championship for $5.3 million. Last December was not only a historic month for the World Poker Tour, but also poker in general. The series at Wynn attracted 33,712 entries and paid out more than $100 million.
That included the biggest event of them all, the $10,400 buy-in WPT World Championship, the first ever $40 million guaranteed poker tournament. Dan Sepiol beat out a field of 3,835 entrants to win $5.3 million, capping off one of the most memorable series in poker history.
But that was far from the only major tournament during the series. Take, for example, the $1,100 buy-in WPT Prime Championship that attracted a World Poker Tour record 10,512 entries, generating a prize pool north of $10 million. Calvin Anderson was the last player standing in that massive field, and received nearly $1.4 million.
The WPT Ladies Championship, also an $1,100 buy-in event, was conquered by Lisa Costello for $85,297, who beat out 457 entrants. This year’s series figures to be just as big, if not bigger, and World Poker Tour CEO Adam Pliska is already excited.
“With great pride, we unveil the festival dates for the highly anticipated 2024 WPT World Championship,” Pliska said. “The tradition continues as we enter our third year alongside the incredible Wynn Las Vegas team, so mark your calendars in preparation for what is sure to be another memorable December.”
