The 888poker Live Festivals have returned with a bang in 2022, after running successful outings in London, Barcelona and Bucharest. Now, the online poker giant heads back to Spain from November 10-20, for their CNP888poker LIVE Madrid Festival, which takes place at Casino Gran Madrid.
2022 is also a marquee year for 888poker, as the platform celebrates its 20th anniversary! To give thanks to players, the site is also running online satellite events where you can win yourself a luxury package to Madrid worth $2,000, which includes entry into €1,100 888poker LIVE Madrid 20th Anniversary Main Event.

The second is the CNP888 Main Event, which comes with a €550 buy-in and runs from November 16-20.
888poker also continues to show its love for Mystery Bounty tournaments, which have proven to be extremely popular on the site. In Madrid, there will be a €225 Mystery Bounty event, which is expected to generate all kinds of fun.
