The Irish Open has taken over the cavernous Main Hall of the RDS for the €1 Million Guaranteed Main Event, April 5-10. The longest-running European poker tournament, it’s going to be one of the largest in 2023, too, if the festival events so far have been anything to judge by.

We’ll be posting videos, photos and activity highlights* as well as live updating the other Championship events (choose event using the drop down menu above!).

*”Activity” is such a dry word for the heady and perenially-entertaining mix of nightly music, bar sports, comedy and Fun Casino games.

While you’re here though, please enjoy this interview with 2013 Irish Open champion Ian Simpson who’s playing the Main today. He’s celebrating the 10th anniversary of his big win as well as his engagement – he’s been back every year since with his now wife, and this year they’ve brought their baby daughter along too. Such awww. ❤️
