Sunrise Poker Championship
A two-day freeze-out above Darling Harbour — 120 seats, serious structure, and a welcome dinner the night before where nobody talks cards. We hold a small block of entries for our travellers.
Four casino events anchor our season — a poker championship, a baccarat invitational, a New Year's gala and a roulette weekend. We sort the seat, the suite and the table-side dinner booking in one call.
Real dates, real venues, small entourages. Book a seat solo or arrive as a group — the gaming is optional, the weekend isn't.

An evening-format invitational in Broadbeach — salon tables, a champagne reception and a strict cap of 48 players. Our package includes the room upstairs so nobody drives home.
New Year's Eve done properly — a black-tie dinner on Southbank, river fireworks at midnight, then the gaming salon until whatever hour feels right. Rooms reserved upstairs all night.
A relaxed two-nighter in Burswood — a dealer-led masterclass on Saturday arvo, a friendly tournament that evening, and a long Sunday lunch on the river to finish.
The year's biggest tournament sits inside Vivid season — combine it with harbour nights.
Queensland in July is the sweet spot — warm days, an elegant evening on the tables.
Book the gala early — our suite block on the 31st is the first thing to go each year.
Registration rules, buy-ins and dress codes are fiddly. We handle them before you're even asked.
Pick an event above (or ask for the full season list) and who you're bringing. We confirm seat availability within the day.
Casino registration, ID checks, buy-in logistics, seating preferences — done in advance. You arrive registered, not queued at a desk.
Suite upstairs, dinner reservations, show tickets, a driver for midnight. The event is the centrepiece — we build the frame.
We'll tell you which events suit a beginner and which are genuinely sharks-only. No interest in sending you somewhere miserable.
"Bubbled out on day two of the poker — still the best weekend I've had in Sydney. The welcome dinner alone was worth the trip."

"Booked the baccarat night as a 40th. Never touched a card before — the dealer masterclass beforehand made the whole table feel friendly."

"NYE gala: fireworks, a ridiculous dessert course, and a suite upstairs so we never queued for a cab. Booked again for next year."

What to wear, when to register, whether you need to be any good — answered.
Every event on this page takes place inside a licensed 18+ venue. Bring valid photo ID — Australian venues enforce the age rule at the door without exception, registered players included.
Gaming should stay a game. If it starts costing more than money — sleep, savings, relationships — confidential counselling is free and fast to reach. We'd rather lose a booking than see a guest hurt.
Tell us which event caught your eye and we'll come back with the full package — entry, suite, dinner and the drive home.
