Sarne Lightman, Full Tilt Poker’s head of marketing, said, “This is our first live poker festival since relaunch and we plan on making it one players will always remember.”

Gus Hansen’s attendances at the main event has been confirmed which will take place in a specially designated “poker village” in the heart of Galway city at a time which will also see tens of thousands of people descend on the historic town for the Volvo Ocean Race and the Galway Races.
