The Main Event
The KPC Main Event costs KRW 1,300,000 (~US$957) and starts players with 30,000 chips. Five starting flights, Day 1A to Day 1E, run from October 28, and the event ends on November 1, a day before the festival closes. The KRW 880 million guarantee is the only one on the KPC Jeju schedule.

Headline Events
Beyond the Main Event, the program leans on variety more than guarantees. No Limit Hold'em fills 21 of the 32 tournaments. There are also four Omaha events, two Big O events, two mixed-game events, and one event each of Atomic Pineapple, 2-7 Single Draw and 2-7 Double Draw. Buy-ins run from about US$220 to US$5,150.
Satellites
All seven satellites are milestone satellites at KRW 300,000 (~US$221). Five feed the Main Event between October 28 and 30. The other two, on October 30 and 31, feed the Baby Dragon Classic. The event names give the milestones as 60,000 chips for a Main Event seat and 70,000 for the Baby Dragon.
Part of a Bigger Jeju Fortnight
KPC Jeju sits inside the Jeju Poker Festival 2026 umbrella program, which runs at the same casino until November 11. It overlaps with the Red Dragon Jeju 2026 series from October 31, so one trip can cover both. Flights and start times are in the KPC Jeju 2026 schedule and results.
