New era, same DNA! The Belgian Poker Challenge (BPC) is evolving and becoming the PokerStars Open Namur.
The PokerStars Open is a series of European poker tournaments, launched in 2025, organized by PokerStars. The creation of the new European circuit was announced in December 2024. Each festival features a €1,100 main event with a guaranteed prize pool of €1,000,000.
The PokerStars Open will be stopping off in the heart of Wallonia for Belgium's biggest poker festival. Those who have already visited Namur will agree that it's one of the best places to host sensational action at the tables. After all, this historic setting offers many other activities besides poker.
Discover the ancient citadel, a UNESCO World Heritage site or the delights of a cruise along the Meuse, at the gateway to the splendid Ardennes. Once again, there are big prize pools up for grabs, and you could get a share of them by taking your seat at the tables.
Head to the left bank of the River Meuse and discover all that the prestigious Circus Casino Resort in Namur has to offer. With buy-ins to suit most bankrolls, it would be a shame to miss out on this event.
