The Festival Series Presents: Hospitality Schedule Bratislava 2024


Without further ado, we proudly present the upcoming Hospitality Events schedule in Bratislava! We’ve crafted another epic line-up to ensure your experience beyond the poker tables will be all about experiences, banter, and laughter!
All online qualifiers that have won packages THAT include our hospitality package can look forward to a journey with both Slovak and even Hungarian culture! With daily activities both on and off the casino grounds, there's something for everyone.
The hospitality package holders will also receive The Festival Cap! Make sure to contact one of our crew members to be able to receive it (Melvin Schroen, Andreas Hoglund, Václav 'Lemon' Dušek, Mairo Toom, Martin 'Franke' von Zweigbergk). The colour of the cap won't be revealed just yet, so hold your horses until Bratislava!
What's new in the next edition of The Festival Series? We are hosting elementary tea for EVERYONE every day between 19:30 and 20:00 local time, next to the Franke's Flips table! This means that it is not required to be part of hospitality, so everyone will have the chance to gather, connect, and get to know each other!

Hospitality Schedule: Part I
Of course, we’ll kick things off with the official Welcome Drinks for package holders, followed by letting you experience the thrill of Franke's Flip Flops!
After our opening day, prepare for an adventure on Tuesday morning as we will have our first real activity scheduled with the Escape Room challenge in Bratislava. If you’re lucky enough to break free, more hospitality flips await you back at the casino!
Martin 'Franke' von Zweigbergk, the brain, farmer, and of course the fish, behind The Festival Series, has once again sprinkled some unique surprises into the hospitality schedule. This time, he’s added an international twist! Our journey will take us by bus across the border to have lunch in Hungary, where you’ll be able to enjoy the Hungarian cuisine in great fashion. Once we are back at the Banco Casino, another set of hospitality flips await us!
*For the trip to Hungary, make sure you bring your passport or any other official travel ID valid in Europe!

While the Main Event is in full swing, and The Hendon Mob tournament and H.O.R.S.E.S Mixed Main Event have come to an end, we will be going Back to the Basics on Thursday! Enjoy playing games with poker buddies of the hospitality group, and have a ball playing computer games which take you back in time. Don't worry, the gaming hall is located just outside the casino so it won't be a long trip this time! Once the games are over, we head back for yet another series of hospitality flips. Ideal to start your evening grind at the poker tables!
On Friday, November 22nd, we will visit the nice Bratislava Christmas Market. Prepare for some early Christmas vibes! Fun fact: Please bring your Festival Caps! If you want to join us for this exciting experience, make sure to arrive on time at the meeting point outside the Crowne Plaza main entrance at 16:45 local time.
Saturday means it's the weekend, and what better way to boost the weekend than with some tasty tea! During the Goodbye Drinks, we say 'Cheers' to the week of the hospitality events and to good luck at the tables!


Whoever has time off from the poker tables later on, make sure to join our epic Player Party at Club Great! For the third time in a row, we will put on our dancing shoes and hit the dancefloor at one of Bratislava's coolest clubs.
Last but not the least, is the Guided Tour. Martin 'Franke' von Zweigbergk has a tremendous amount of knowledge about the history of Bratislava and will lead the way across the city centre, where many treasures are to be explored. It's the ideal way of ending our live event in Bratislava, and rest assured, surely there is no twist in this story!

More Information
The hospitality events are part of package deals which can be won through online satellites at various operators prior our live events. It is important to know that the hospitality schedule has been crafted in the best possible way to enjoy both the poker events, as well as all the activities. Do you wish to also attend hospitality events during our next stops? Make sure to check out our online qualifying page, and look out for our Social Media channels!
There are four activities in total (Escape Room, Lunch in Hungary, Back to Basics, Christmas Market), where we will have a meeting point in front of the Crowne Plaza main entrance. We are all breath poker, so we are well aware of the variation with time scheduling but try to be on time for these activities as it will be much appreciated.
Other important notes:
- All players eligible for the hospitality package have received an email detailing everything they need to know about the event and its side activities.
- For the Hungary trip, please inform anyone of The Festival Series crew (Melvin Schroen, Andreas Hoglund, Václav 'Lemon' Dušek, Mairo Toom, Martin 'Franke' von Zweigbergk) if you would like to join, latest by 23:00 CET on Tuesday, November 19. This is important in terms of transport. (Bring your Passport/ID!)
