The Asian Poker Tour (APT) will officially return to South Korea for the upcoming APT Incheon 2026 series. Scheduled to take place from August 7 to August 16, 2026, the elite tournament circuit is set to gather regional and international poker players at the Paradise City Casino. 

This multi-day festival offers a comprehensive schedule of diverse events, high-stakes guarantees, and crucial paths toward qualifying for key regional championships.

The tournament structure features a massive lineup of tournaments tailored to varying skill levels and bankrolls. Leading the festival is the headline APT Main Event, which commands a massive KRW 1,500,000,000 guarantee (KRW 1.5B GTD). 

The headline event runs across multiple flights beginning August 9, requires a buy-in of KRW 2.5M, and will award three seats to the APTC Taipei 2026. High-stakes enthusiasts can also target several landmark tournaments during the series.
