Asia Live Poker Calendar: December 2026
December 2026 brings six live poker festivals in Asia that we track, with Hanoi and Taipei among the hosts and a New Year series in Tokyo to close it. As of mid-October, only one of them has published its schedule, so most entries below list dates and venues for now. The festivals are grouped by start date, from series that carry over from November to the stops that run into January.
