This page covers the current schedule, the typical structure across buy-in tiers, and how the Ontario field sizes compare with the global edition that runs on the international client at the same time.

Schedule and Structure

GG Ontario Festival runs on GGPoker Ontario during its advertised window and is available only to players physically located in Ontario. The structure divides into Low, Medium and High buy-in tiers, each with its own marquee and its own leaderboard. Most editions carry dozens of numbered events per week.

Guarantees

Ontario festival guarantees are materially smaller than the same operator's global series due to the ring-fenced player pool. The total guarantee for GG Ontario Festival is published in advance, and most marquee events have individual guarantees in the high five to six figures Canadian.

How Ontario Compares With Global

The November 2025 Ontario Court of Appeal ruling cleared a constitutional path for shared liquidity, but implementation has not been scheduled. Until Ontario pools its player base with another regulated jurisdiction, every GG Ontario Festival event will remain Ontario-only. For context, the concurrent global GGPoker series runs with guarantees roughly fifteen to twenty times the Ontario edition.

Ontario Regulatory Notes

All GG Ontario Festival events are playable only on GGPoker Ontario and only for Ontario-located players aged 19 or older. Bonus structures, leaderboards and mystery bounties where applicable follow AGCO marketing rules, which prohibit operators from advertising sign-up inducements outside their own platforms.
