Move aside, Monaco. There’s a new star-studded event in town – the PokerStars Open Cannes. Held in the Palace of Festivals and Congresses of Cannes, the same venue as the legendary Cannes Film Festival, there aren’t many places that offer the luxury and prestige of this resort town in the south of France.

So, when it comes to ending the year on a high, there’s no better place to be than Cannes, especially when we’ll be revealing the winners of the PokerStars League awards. Blend the area’s history of holding high-class events and PokerStars ability to organize epic poker action and you’ve got a prestigious event that’s new on the circuit.

Calling all poker enthusiasts – an unforgettable experience of high stakes, luxury and culture awaits. All you have to do is take your seat at the table.
