888poker LIVE will be wrapping up its extremely successful 2024 season in a few days’ time with a ten-day festival taking place in Coventry.
Taking place October 10 — 20, the Coventry poker festival will combine two events: the final leg of the UKPL, followed by the last 888poker LIVE festival of the year.
The schedule features a great selection of events, with buy-ins starting as low as £110 for UKPL tournaments, so 888poker is once again putting on a show that is accessible to everyone. Fans of live tournament action will get to enjoy a well-organized and enjoyable series without breaking the bank!
Final Leg of the UKPL Kicks Off the Action
Things will get underway at Grosvenor Casino Coventry, located in the CBS Arena, on October 10. This is when the first UKPL event kicks off — the £230 Opening Voyage.
The UKPL action will take up the first few days of the festival, with a variety of tournaments and satellites to the £560 Main Event, which will have three starting flights on October 11 and 12.
Buy-ins from October 10 — 14 are very affordable, ranging from £100 to £300 for the most part, while satellites to the UKPL Main Event are available at an even lower price.
All satellites on the schedule will be played in the cashout format, which means players will get a seat to the main tournament once they accumulate a certain number of chips.

Exciting Action to Wrap Up the Year
As the UKPL wraps up, it will segue into the 888poker Live Coventry festival, which features an even richer selection of tournaments, crowned by the £888 Main Event, running October 16 — 20.
The Main Event has six planned Day 1 flights, so we expect a large player field and a correspondingly big prize pool.
The first event of the second part of the schedule will be the £440 Mystery Bounty, another affordable and fun tournament that will get the action going.
Average buy-ins are slightly higher but still in low three figures for a majority of tournaments, and there are several Main Event satellites lined up at just over £100.
