Great News from The Festival Bratislava! Let the Bounty Hunting begin!

Great News from The Festival Bratislava! Let the Bounty Hunting begin!

We are beyond proud to officially announce our collaboration with Bounty Hunter Days, the established live poker festival brand founded by Stephan Kübler and operated through poker-trip.de. Over the past years, Bounty Hunter Days has built a solid reputation across Europe, and joining forced with such an experienced and respected organiser is something we genuinely value.

Since its first ever event in 2020, Bounty Hunter Days has completed 38 editions, steadily making name for itself in the European poker circuit. The series is most commonly hosted at Grand Casino Aš in the Czech Republic, while also making stops in Malta, Liechtenstein and Luzern. Across all these destinations, the brand has created a great community that travels alongside them.

Stephan Kübler has played a significant role in developing the live poker landscape, particularly in Germany and Central Europe. With a dedicated team around him and a clear vision for sustainable growth, he has consistently delivered events that players trust and return to. We see many parallels in how both of our brands approach poker, which makes this collaboration feel like a natural fit.

The First Step: Rozvadov, 9–15 June

The first visible milestone of our collaboration will take place in Rozvadov from 9th to 15th of June. During The Festival Rozvadov, we will host the Bounty Hunter Days Mystery Bounty, featuring a guaranteed prize pool of €100,000. The tournament will have a buy-in of €230 and is being promised to be an epic beginning of something beautiful. Later this week, we will also release the full tournament schedule of the Rozvadov stop!

Mystery Bounty tournaments has quickly become a favourite among poker players, and it might just turn out to be a valuable ride. At King's Resort Rozvadov, Mystery Bounties will be presented with great technology, so that all players in the poker room can follow all the action which bounties are still available and are being handed out. To have a €100,000 GTD tournament defines this great moment to share it with all the players that support both of the brands.

For us, Rozvadov represents more than just poker. As you know, hospitality events is what makes The Festival a fantastic poker holiday experience, and in Rozvadov the bar is set high again to make sure everyone is enjoying their time on- and off the tables. Rozvadov is more than just another stop, especially now that Bounty Hunter Days will also celebrate their 'Return' at King's Resort, where they have held tournament series in the past.

A Shared Vision for European Live Poker

Bounty Hunter Days gas shown over 38 edititions that consistent quality and community focus lead to sustainable success. We are excited to combine that experience with our own platform and reach. Looking ahead, Malta is already on the horizon, and we are confident that further stops will follow as this partnership develops.

Stephan Kübler himself sees this cooperation as a natural evolution for both brands:

“Partnering with The Festival Series is a natural next step for Bounty Hunter Days. Our brands share the same DNA: a passion for great poker, a vibrant community, and a lot of fun at the tables. It’s a pleasure to work with Franke – a guy who truly understands the spirit of the game. We are thrilled to launch this collaboration in Rozvadov with a €100k guaranteed prize pool in a 230€ Mystery Bounty event and look forward to bringing our bounty action to even more players across Europe. Let the bounty hunt begin!”

We appreciate the trust and the shared ambition behind these words. Working alongside an organiser who has contributed so much to poker in Germany, the Czech Republic, Malta and beyond gives us confidence in what lies ahead.

For now, our focus is clear: Rozvadov in June. A €100,000 guaranteed Mystery Bounty. The first official step of a partnership that we believe has strong potential across Europe.

This is only the beginning, and this is just the beginning! 2026 is going to be a year full of epicness.
