The only international airport on the island is Malta International Airport (MIA).  From there it is a 15-minute cab ride to St. Julian’s and Hilton.

 

To check-in, at the 5 * Hilton hotel, all you need to do is show a photo ID, such as your passport or driver’s license. If you are paying for a guest or an extra night, or you want your minibar open, you will be asked for a credit card.

 

Package holders also have priority registration to the main event and a dedicated registration area for side events, as well as registration via their player accounts at any of the sponsoring brands. Ask your sponsoring brand representative.

 

For sure! Follow the same procedure above.

Oh yes! Follow the exact same procedure as above.

 

The daily casino buffet ticket is handed out during the Grand Event tournament play on a daily basis.

 

Packages are not reimbursable. However we will do whatever we can to help you.  You can transfer them to whomever you choose (sell them or give them away). We will accept cancellations and re-allocation of packages until 3 days prior to the event.

No-shows and last-minute cancellations are not reimbursed nor transferred. Please notify your sponsoring brand’s customer support and they will affect the change.

 

Please request one from your sponsoring brand’s representative and we will issue one. Please send your passport number, nationality, and passport expiry date. You will get it in 5 business days.

Malta is very relaxed and this is a poker holiday for you. Casual attire is accepted, even flip-flops.

 

Players will be handed a silicon band wrist.  Wear your silicone wristband for express access to all activities and entrance to player off felt activities.  Avoid queues.

All package holders are preregistered into a day of play according to what they notified the sponsoring brand’s staff members. We always try to please all our clientele but the option to choose your starting day is on a first-come, first-served, basis. If you cannot make it, we know things in life happen! We take care of you and re-allocate the ticket to the next flight, until level 10th day 1G.

 

Late registration extends until level 10th of each flight. If you have a printed ticket and you fail to show up until the tenth level (inclusive) you will be blinded off as your entry is already added to the prize pool.

Tickets cannot be changed.

 
 

You need a photo ID for your first entry. After that, you will have a casino ID that you can keep using. If you lose it, they can easily reproduce a new one with your photo ID and even just your date of birth (as you were registered before).

 
 

It is a very big tournament and in order to maximize your time on the island, we have a stand-alone final table on Monday. 

In Malta, an eco-tax is a levy that is imposed on all visitors to the country who are staying in any type of accommodation. The tax is collected by the hotels and is then remitted to the government.

The purpose of the eco-tax is to help fund environmental projects and initiatives throughout Malta, such as waste management, conservation efforts, and the protection of natural resources. The tax is designed to help offset the impact that tourism has on the environment, and to encourage visitors to be more mindful of their carbon footprint.

The amount of the eco-tax varies depending on the type of accommodation and the length of stay. The tax ranges from €0.50 daily and capped at €5 per person. Guests are to pay this tax directly at reception of their hotels and it is not included in any kind of poker package.
Children under the age of 18 are exempt from the tax.
