888poker UKPL Blackpool: Secure Your Seat in the Exciting Freeroll

888poker’s UK Poker League (UKPL) will be in Blackpool from May 5 — 10, 2026, featuring a £560 Main Event. Players can secure their Main Event seats via a special satellite challenge campaign, running April 11 — May 2, 2026. The freeroll satellite on May 3 will see the top 30 finishers receive entries into the Main Event.

The 2026 UKPL Luton Main Event broke the attendance record with 556 entries and a prize pool of just over £264,000. To secure a spot in the May 3 UKPL Blackpool Freeroll, players need to complete just one task: play at least 50 online tournaments between April 11 and May 2, 2026. The minimum buy-in for the tournaments to count toward the campaign is $5, and BLAST tournaments are included. The Blackpool Freeroll event takes place on May 3, starting at 7 pm GMT.

The satellite will play out in the freezeout format, and the last 30 players standing will receive tickets for the £560 Main Event taking place at Grosvenor Casino Blackpool. The Blackpool festival will bring large fields, heaps of exciting action, and big prize pools. The UKPL Luton Main Event winner picked up £56,700 for their efforts, which translates to just over 100 buy-ins.
