Join us in celebrating 16 years of Pokahnights
Our most exceptional year yet!
During last year’s 15 Years of Pokahnights festival, we promised more Pokah... and we more than delivered. In our 16th year, the club has surpassed itself on every level. This fall, we’ll place the ultimate cherry on Pokahnights’ poker cake: the first WSOP event on Belgian soil, hosted at Pokahroom Middelkerke.
From July 27 to August 17, we will host our annual Birthday Festival, featuring a total guaranteed prize pool of €50.000. Each event guarantees €1.600 in prize money, with the Main Event offering a guaranteed €16.000.
Let's make it an unseen poker summer together, both in Antwerp and Middelkerke!

It's okay to go a little harder already. A joker left and right is guaranteed to bring action to the tables. In this tournament, all the twos are jokers. Pairs are unlikely to win too many pots here...

For mixed-game enthusiasts, we’re once again scheduling a full-scale 8-Game event. Will the patron dodge another straight flush in the heads-up this year?
