Irish Elvis Festival Poker Tournament
The search for Ireland's best Elvis is set take place at the Paddy Power Poker sponsored Elvis Festival which takes place at the Great Northern Hotel in the rural seaside town of Bundoran in North West Ireland between 31 October and 02 November.
Sponsored by Paddy Power, the three day Elvis festival will also be the setting for 'Elvis Pokerfest,' a multi-location, weekend long, Texas Hold 'Em tournament in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Heats of the Texas Hold 'Em tournament will take place around a network of pubs in the town with the grand final taking place at the Grand Northern Hotel immediately after the Elvis Gospel Show on the closing day of the Festival.
The Winner, and their guest, will be taken to the other Las Vegas – the one in Nevada – courtesy of sponsors Paddy Power.
Entry to the tournament is free with all re-buys and top-ups going to Down Syndrome Ireland. In keeping with the weekend, players get one free re-buy if they are dressed as Elvis.
Ken Robertson from Paddy Power said “This is Ireland's first ever Elvis Festival which I believe is long over due. It seemed a very natural fit to run an Elvis themed poker tournament as part of the Festival. It looks set to be a very unique event and I guarantee anyone who takes part a weekend to remember”
