PokerStars has confirmed its return as the headline sponsor of the Goliath 2025 Main Event, the biggest live poker tournament in Europe. The event takes place in Coventry, UK from July 24 to August 3, 2025, and offers a record-breaking £2 million guaranteed prize pool with a £200 buy-in — excellent value for recreational and low-stakes players.
The tournament is part of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) and also feeds into the National Poker League. Players can earn leaderboard points throughout the year for a shot at the £50,000 PlayOff Final and a £40,000 Grosvenor Poker sponsorship package for 2026.
PokerStars online satellites to the Main Event are already live, with £2.20 feeders leading into £22 direct qualifiers, making it easy for players to win their seat for a fraction of the cost.
This marks the third year PokerStars has supported Goliath and the second year as title sponsor, highlighting its ongoing strategy to back major live poker events outside its own tour brands. The company is also co-sponsoring the 2025 Irish Poker Open, reinforcing its commitment to grassroots and international poker.
Goliath continues to grow rapidly. After a record-breaking 2024 edition with 11,479 entries and a £1.8M prize pool, organizers are aiming to surpass those numbers in 2025.
