Just months after the successful WPT Championship festival at Playground in Montreal, the World Poker Tour announced it will return to Montreal this fall.

The WPT Playground festival will take place Oct. 14-30 and will culminate with a CAD $3,500 buy-in WPT Playground Championship event offering a guarantee of CAD $1.5 million. Additionally, the series will feature highlights, including the WPT Prime Cup and the WPT 500 Championship.

“It was such a pleasure hosting a WPT Championship festival at Playground back in May, that we embraced the idea of returning for a second 2024 showing,” WPT CEO Adam Pliska said in a press release. “Players will once again have a chance at three different WPT titles, including the most prestigious honor of being immortalized on the Mike Sexton WPT Champions Cup.”

In May, British Columbia's David Dongwoo Ko continued his breakout year by taking down the WPT Montreal Championship for CAD $434,900. The event drew 882 entrants for a prize pool of $2.8 million and had a field that included Darryll Fish, Xuan Liu and three-time WPT champion Eric Afriat.

Now, players will have another chance at winning a WPT title in Montreal, starting off with the CAD $400,000 guaranteed WPT 500 Championship with starting flights from Oct. 14-19.

After that the CAD CAD $1,150 buy-in WPT Prime Playground Championship will take place Oct. 20-25 with a CAD $800,000 guaranteed. Earlier this year, Jikai Zhang topped the nearly 1,300-player field for CAD $165,070.

Finally, the WPT Playground Championship will run Oct. 24-30, marking an exciting end to the festival in Montreal.
