The 54th annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) has been announced by Caesars to take place from May 30 to July 18, 2025. For the second consecutive year, WSOP Nevada will be held on the Vegas Strip.
In the press release, Ty Stewart, the Senior Vice President and Executive Director of World Series of Poker, said:
The WSOP’s historic first appearance on the Las Vegas Strip was a huge success, and we’re thrilled to announce the summer 2025 dates just in time for the holiday season. Poker players and enthusiasts can now officially schedule these dates and possibly even book a trip to the WSOP as a holiday present for their loved ones or themselves. We’re delighted to return to Paris Las Vegas and the soon-to-be Horseshoe Las Vegas for another thrilling chapter in the tournament’s history, as these two resorts set a new standard in hosting last year’s event.
Events will be divided between Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas. Bally’s Las Vegas has been rebranded as Horseshoe. The renovations and rebranding of the property are expected to be finished by the year’s end.
The Horseshoe casino has undergone a redesign, including a new WSOP poker room.
