The Festival Announces Series & Weekend Tour Dates For 2026

The Festival founder, Martin ‘Franke’ von Zweigbergk, and his team are rolling into 2026 with their sights set on the biggest year The Festival Series has ever had. Their plans for this year have recently been announced, which include four full festivals and three festival weekend events.

2026 opens like 2025 came to a close for The Festival, at Banco Casino in Bratislava. The Festival in Bratislava 2026 runs from February 23rd to March 1st. The 2026 season will also include stops in Rozavdov, Malta, and Tallinn, returning to Estonia for a full festival for the first time since 2022. Much to the delight of the fans, The Hendon Mob Championship will be featured in all four full festivals, including our own return to Tallinn for the first time in over seven years.

The Festival Weekend events will take place in Vilnius, Tallinn, and Riga.

The Festival Series 2026

The 2026 season kicks off in Bratislava at Banco Casino from February 23 to March 1 before moving to King’s Resort Live for The Festival in Rozvadov from June 9 to 15. The Festival in Malta will return in 2026 and will once again be hosted at Portomaso Casino in St Julian’s from September 14 to 20.

The much-anticipated return to Tallinn will close out the season with The Festival in Tallinn at Olympic Park Casino from November 20 to 26.

The Festival Weekend 2026

The first Festival Weekend event will take place in Lithuania’s capital Vilnius, at Olympic Casino Lietuva. The Festival Weekend Vilnius will run from May 28 to 31. The schedule will be released soon, but The Festival fans can expect a mix of events with perhaps the spotlight focused on one particular game.

The second Festival Weekend event will be a warm-up to The Festival in Tallinn, later in the year as The Festival Weekend Tallinn comes to Olympic Park Casino at the Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel in Estonia’s capital. The event runs from July 1 to 5.

The third and final Festival Weekend stop for 2026 will see The Festival Weekend Riga Edition at Olympic Voodoo Casino inside the Radisson Blu Latvija Conference & Spa Hotel. The Festival’s first event in the Latvian capital runs from September 3 to 6.
