The Festival Series Presents: Hospitality Schedule Bratislava 2025!
Without further ado, we would like to present the Hospitality Events Schedule for The Festival Series Bratislava 2025! Once again, we’ve put together a line-up that guarantees epic moments both on and off the poker tables, packed with culture, laughter, and, of course, the needed hospitality flips!
Operators: Bet365, Betfair, Betfred, Arcticbet, Betsafe, Betsmith, Betsolid, Betsson, Fortuna, Boylepokersports, Champion Poker, Coolbet, Guts, Hollandcasino, Inbet, Klondaika, Meridianbet, Netbet,
Nordicbet, Paddypowerpoker, Paf, Redstar, Svenskaspel, Swisscasino.
All online qualifiers who’ve won packages, including our hospitality package, can look forward to a journey through the best of Slovak culture, with a few delightful and challenging surprises thrown in. The Hospitality package includes a variety of activities, and this time it is no different! Bratislava is the perfect place to come up with new activities, and this time we have a new one added to the schedule: The Treasure Hunt! If you would like to have a taste of previous editions of the hospitality events, check out this page.
And yes, Hospitality Package holders will once again receive the Festival Cap. To claim yours, find one of our friendly crew members (Melvin Schroen, Andreas Höglund, Václav ‘Lemon’ Dušek, Mairo Toom, Martin ‘Franke’ von Zweigbergk, or our newly introduced Hospitality Hostess: Christel Natri). The colour? That’s still top secret... we like to keep some mystery in Bratislava!
What’s New This Year?
This year is all about creating fun, relaxed moments for our hospitality guests throughout the week. We’ll have dedicated meetups, Hospitality Flips sessions, and chances to hang out away from the tables, so you can unwind, swap stories, and get to know the rest of the crew before jumping back into the action. What better preparation for a big day at the tables can you get, right?

Then, on Wednesday, we step into a local paradise with a Brewery Tour and Lunch at the wonderful Bratislavská Reštaurácia. Get ready for stories, suds, and (probably) Franke singing folk songs.

Thursday’s adventure takes you through the cobbled streets of Bratislava in a Treasure Hunt full of riddles, clues, and hilarious surprises. Friday? We’re going Back to the Lanes! for some competitive Bowling action. Expect high scores, low banter, and plenty of local drinks. Saturday brings a cool twist, we’re heading to an Ice Hockey match of HC Slovan, who are playing in the highest national league! Time to cheer like locals (and maybe win a side-bet on the scoreline). To remind you as well that we have a sportsbook tournament included in the tournament schedule for Bratislava, hint-hint! Finally, on Sunday, wind down with our Guided Tour, complete with a cup of mulled wine and Franke’s secret stories about Bratislava’s past (and his poker losses #GambleAware)
