WSOP Circuit Adds First Spain Stop In Madrid

The WSOP Circuit will make its first stop in Spain with an 11-day festival at Casino Gran Vía in Madrid from October 23 through November 2, 2026. The schedule features 11 WSOP Circuit ring events, with listed buy-ins ranging from €300 to €2,500.

The Madrid stop gives the circuit a new national foothold while offering a varied tournament program built around a €1,500 Main Event. That Main Event is listed as Ring #7 and is scheduled across four starting flights before playing down to its final day on November 1.

A New WSOP Circuit Market in Madrid

Casino Gran Vía will host the first Spanish WSOP Circuit festival, adding Madrid to the circuit calendar with a full ring schedule rather than a single marquee event. The festival opens on October 23 and closes on November 2, when the Colossus is scheduled to reach its final day.

The buy-in spread is one of the defining features of the stop. The €300 Mini Main Event and €300 Colossus sit at the lowest listed entry point, while the €2,500 High Roller is the top listed buy-in. Between them, the schedule includes several mid-range ring events and multiple formats for different tournament profiles.

Opening Events and Key Schedule Points

The series begins with the €300 Mini Main Event on October 23, with that tournament scheduled to conclude on October 25. October 25 is also set to feature the start of the €550 Seniors event and the €550 Mystery Bounty event.

The €2,500 High Roller is scheduled to begin on October 27, one day before the first Main Event flight. Other listed ring events include the €300 Colossus, €1,000 Deepstack, €550 Omaha, €400 Superstack and €350 Bigstack, alongside Knockout and other ring formats on the 11-event schedule.

Main Event Structure Centers the Festival

The €1,500 Main Event starts with Day 1A on October 28 and continues with Day 1B on October 29. Days 1C and 1D are both scheduled for October 30, creating four starting opportunities before Day 2 on October 31.

Days 1A, 1B and 1C are scheduled to use 40-minute levels. Day 1D will use 20-minute levels, giving the final starting flight a shorter structure than the first three. The Main Event final day is scheduled for November 1.

That structure places the Main Event near the end of the festival while still leaving the schedule active after the champion is due to be decided. The Colossus final day on November 2 is scheduled to close the Madrid stop.

Eleven Rings Across Several Formats

The Madrid lineup extends beyond standard tournament categories. Alongside the Mini Main Event, Main Event, High Roller and Deepstack, the schedule includes Mystery Bounty, Colossus, Knockout, Superstack, Bigstack, Seniors and Omaha events.

The Omaha event gives the schedule a clear non-hold'em option, while Mystery Bounty and Knockout tournaments add elimination-based formats. The Seniors event provides a separate player category within the overall ring schedule.

For Spain’s first WSOP Circuit stop, the confirmed framework is substantial: 11 rings over 11 days, a €1,500 Main Event with four starting flights, and a buy-in range that runs from €300 to €2,500 at Casino Gran Vía in Madrid.
