Players head to Casino Barcelona this week for partypoker’s MILLIONS Europe with the festival running June 2-12. The online action has already begun on the site with the online Day 1 of the €3,300 Main Event kicking off last Sunday
Live starting flights are now part of the series and Main Event satellites run before each flight. Beyond the play on the felt, partypoker is promising even more fun throughout the series away from the tables.
“Partypoker can now confirm a host of activities that will be running alongside the tournament schedule at La Taverna bar to add to the excitement when players are away from the tables,” the company noted in a statement.

Plenty of fun planned from partypoker
Partypoker is playing up the additional activities in this series. The company continues working to make live series appealing to a broad range of players, including offering some portions online.
The extracurricular fun in Barcelona starts by putting players’ musical knowledge to the test on June 3 in the “Blind Test.” Teams of players guess the title and artist of a selection of songs. The winning team earns a 30-minute jet ski experience.
Players who perform away from the table can take part in karaoke nights on June 5 and 9. Those brave enough to sing on stage gain access to a free open bar. Festivities continue on June 7 with a beer pong competition to win a jet ski experience.
On June 8, famous names from poker and beyond come together to play in a live-streamed Celebrity Sit & Go. Players appearing in the tournament include Team partypoker’s Carl Froch, Jeffrey “MaximusBlack” Johnston, and Matt Staples.
Party will confirm more players at a later date. Special packages for MILLIONS UK at Dusk Till Dawn, which is set for late November, will be up for grabs.
We are so excited to be back in the beautiful city of Barcelona to hold another fantastic live poker event.
