Action-Packed Player Activities Away from the Felt
For those players looking to keep the party going away from the felt, PokerStars has also announced a full slate of activities. Among the off-table highlights is the PokerStars Players Party on Thursday, November 7, which will take place at Zouk’s Empire Room.
Other fun-filled events include:
- Gold Pass Welcome Event (November 4): A special gathering at Jalisco Underground exclusively for NAPT Gold Pass winners and PokerStars ambassadors.

Players can also relax in the PokerStars Players Lounge throughout the series or grab tickets to head up to the Strat Tower for breathtaking views of Las Vegas.
NAPT Women’s Event and Rake-Free Satellite
With PokerStars being a longtime leader in advocating for increased female participation at the tables, it’s no surprise to see the NAPT shine a bright spotlight on women. On November 5, the NAPT Women’s Event will take center stage, featuring a $330 buy-in and a $30,000 guaranteed prize pool.
In addition, to make this event more accessible and give more women the opportunity to make their mark at the felt, PokerStars is hosting a $60 buy-in rake free(!) Ladies Event Satellite on Sunday, October 20, at Resorts World with unlimited reentry. A seat into the Women’s Event will be awarded for every $330 in the prize pool.
So whether you’re a high roller chasing huge money or a recreational player just looking to have a great poker experience and partake in the festivities, the 2024 NAPT Las Vegas has something for everyone. Prepare for 10 days of thrilling poker action, unforgettable player experiences, and an atmosphere buzzing with energy—right in the heart of Las Vegas.
