WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas
13 Dec 2026 · Wynn Las Vegas, Nevada
The WPT World Championship returns to the Wynn for a fifth consecutive year. The room's own page gives the festival window as 27 November to 21 December 2026, and the $10,400 championship itself sits inside it, with the tour's schedule putting the main event on 13 December.
The World Poker Tour bills the Wynn festival as the finale of its Season 24, with more than 85 events and over $20 million in guaranteed prizes across the series.
Two other Wynn events bracket the championship. The Super Gold Million, new for 2026, is a $400 buy-in that the host venue advertises with a $3 million guarantee — the cheapest route into a seven-figure prize pool anywhere on the December calendar. And a $1,100 WPT Ladies Championship shares the 13 December start date.
The tour's schedule page lists start dates only, so no end date for the championship itself is published there.
