The ninth edition of Coolbet Open is set to take place from September 1st to September 6th, 2026, bringing the popular live poker festival back to Hilton Tallinn Park in Tallinn. After several successful editions and a few years away from the venue, the event returns to one of its most familiar homes, welcoming players back to the heart of Estonia’s capital for another week of cards, competition, and community.

Known for combining a relaxed atmosphere with a strong tournament lineup, Coolbet Open has become a staple on the Northern European poker calendar. Each edition attracts players from across the region, blending competitive poker with the unique charm of Tallinn, a city known for its medieval old town, vibrant nightlife, and growing reputation as a destination for live gaming events.

Schedule now available

The full tournament schedule for this year’s festival has already been announced and is available on the official Coolbet Open website. Players can check all event dates, structures, and buy-ins here: Coolbet Open schedule.

This year’s festival once again promises a packed week of action, with satellites, side events, and the headline tournament drawing most of the attention.

Back to Hilton Tallinn Park

For many returning players, the 2026 edition marks a familiar and welcome return. Coolbet Open was previously hosted at Hilton Tallinn Park, and after a break of several years, the festival is once again heading back to the iconic venue. Located in central Tallinn, Hilton Tallinn Park has long been associated with major live poker events in the region and remains a natural setting for the series.

Its location offers visitors easy access to both the poker tables and the city itself, making it an attractive stop for players looking to combine tournament action with everything Tallinn has to offer.

Main Event remains the centrepiece

The main attraction of the festival will once again be the Main Event, which keeps its familiar €550 buy-in. As the flagship tournament of the series, it is expected to draw a large international field and remain the highlight of the six-day schedule.

With a well-established brand, a popular venue, and a schedule now confirmed, the ninth Coolbet Open looks set to continue its tradition of delivering one of the standout live poker experiences in the Baltics this autumn.
