2026 SiGMA Poker Tour Manila Venue
All poker tournaments and side games associated with the SiGMA Poker Tour Manila festival will be played at the City of Dreams Casino in downtown Manila.
Aside from its spacious poker room, the full-service casino offers luxury accommodations, dining options for all budgets, and an extensive gaming area.
When you’re away from the felt, you can enjoy a wide variety of table games, jackpot slots, and sports betting during your stay.
Shopping is also a viable option if you’re a connoisseur looking for quality cigars, luxury jewelry items, or video gaming accessories.
The in-house facilities that will be used for all tournaments are located inside the Soul Poker Club, which is annexed to the City of Dreams Casino.
The Soul Poker Club routinely offers guaranteed tournament prize pools in excess of $10,000 USD, and the venue has become a very popular attraction for locals looking to bank a huge win during a poker session.
Cash games generally require making yourself available on a waiting list. For the most part, Texas Hold’em games dominate the cash game selection, so you might want to check in advance to see if there are any Omaha or Draw games available.
Manila Tourist Attractions
While much of the focus aimed at Philippines tourist revolves around the bar-hopping nightlife, there are many other ways to enjoy the capital city.
Manila street food is in a category of its own. It is pretty much available around the clock, especially in the downtown area where the City of Dreams Casino is located.
Of course, you can always dine-in at the casino if Asian street cuisine isn’t something you’re accustomed to.

The capital city’s National Museum of Fine Arts offers free admission and can easily take several hours to cover the dozens of galleries and exhibitions on display.
There’s also the historic Fort Santiago that you can visit during regular business hours to take in Filipino history, with a friendly admission price of approximately $1.
