Poker Cancellations
Earlier this month, the World Poker Tour postponed the WPT Prime Cyprus Championship, a $1,100, $1 million guaranteed event at Chamada Prestige Hotel & Spa, directly citing the war involving Iran and increased risk around flying staff and players into the country.
The knock-on effects of the same conflict have also reached other parts of the poker calendar. A mixed-games festival hosted by a well-known Israeli poker personality in Las Vegas was cancelled after its organizer could no longer travel due to regional security concerns and restrictions.
Cyprus itself has been flagged more broadly as a destination feeling the impact of the Iran war and wider Eastern Mediterranean tensions, with travel advisories urging extra caution or recommending that some visitors reconsider plans.
Merit Poker’s 2026 schedule in Northern Cyprus, which includes multiple festivals across the first half of the year, is being promoted with the usual “subject to change” language.
Organizers have not announced any alterations yet, but like all operators in the region, they are watching the security situation closely.
Other international tours with Cyprus stops later in 2026 have also not made public changes but may face pressure if travel warnings escalate or if airlines adjust routes and capacity into the island.
