Poker's most glamorous address. The EPT's spring stop at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel brings the game's biggest names to the principality every April-May, with a Super High Roller schedule that regularly features seven-figure first prizes.
EPT festival home - tournament floor with a Mediterranean view.
The legendary Belle Epoque casino itself; jacket recommended.
Late April to early May for the EPT Monte Carlo festival. Outside festival dates the poker offering is limited - this is a festival destination, not a year-round grind stop.
Stay in Beausoleil (France side) for a fraction of Monaco hotel prices - it is a 10-minute walk. Dress codes are enforced in the main casino. Qualifying online via PokerStars satellites is the classic budget route in.
