The tournament will take place from April 10 – 22, 2025, featuring 11 WSOP Circuit Ring Events and an estimated prize pool exceeding last year’s record-breaking CDN$5.5 million. Following the overwhelming success of Toronto’s inaugural WSOP Circuit Event in 2024, the 2025 edition offers an expanded schedule and increased prize pools.

The 2025 tournament will feature a broad array of events, including the much anticipated $2,000 Main Event and the $3,500 High Roller event, along with new Ladies, Seniors and Pot Limit Omaha tournament events.

Last year’s inaugural WSOP Circuit Event in Toronto saw over 6,000 entries, including 324 Main Event online qualifiers from GGPoker, competing for a record-breaking CDN$5.5 million prize pool - far exceeding the initial $3.9 million estimate. The $2,000 Main Event alone generated a $2.8 million prize pool, while the $3,500 High Roller Event saw a $1 million prize pool.

Earlier this year, Great Canadian Toronto announced an exclusive partnership with GGPoker, making it the only venue in Ontario to host WSOP Bracelet and Ring events. Under this agreement, The Poker Room at Great Canadian Toronto is now officially sponsored by GGPoker, reinforcing the resort’s status as a premier destination for poker enthusiasts.
