Nashville Charity Poker Challenge 2026

Poker players of all ages and abilities are invited to compete for the title of Nashville’s Best Poker Player in the 5th Annual Nashville Charity Poker Challenge on February 1, 2026.

The event was originated by Bongo Java and MafiaoZas Pizza. In addition to our title sponsors Bongo Java and Embers Ski Lodge and we’ve added new sponsors Buddy Allen Carpet One Floor and Home and Tiny Mighty Communications. Fat Bottom Brewery is our location sponsor.

Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee remains our host and administrative partner.

Past recipients have included:

• Centerstone Of Tennessee
• Friends of Radnor Lake
• Nashville Food Project
• Nashville Humane Association
• Nashville State Community College Foundation
• Sexual Assault Center
• Unicycle

All player experience levels are welcome. Space is limited, however. Register early to assure your seat. Entry fees and rebuys are $100 (tax deduction is $75 after tagible benefits), and since it’s all for charity, rebuys are more than encouraged. Register online or at the door, if space is available.
