Poker Under the Stars: A Night of Cards, Networking, and Charity

Get ready for an unforgettable evening in the heart of downtown Tampa! HavenVIP, in collaboration with the NFL Alumni Association, is proud to present Poker Under the Stars, a first-of-its-kind rooftop poker event designed to unite business leaders, entrepreneurs, and public figures from across the Tampa area.

With the city skyline and the night sky as the backdrop, this exclusive event promises more than just high-stakes poker. Players will enjoy all-you-can-eat delicious cuisine, an open bar featuring premium drinks, live music, and captivating entertainment, including an art show with live painting, cigar rollers, luxury watch show, raffle, and a silent auction.

After the poker action wraps up, the night is far from over. Join us for a cocktail hour and party, where you can unwind with more drinks, music, and a spectacular show. This is your chance to network with Tampa’s finest in an unforgettable atmosphere.

But this evening isn't just about the cards—it's about making a difference. All proceeds will go directly to the NFL Alumni’s Caring for Kids charity foundation, supporting children in need and providing opportunities for a brighter future. Whether you're here to play, network, or simply enjoy the atmosphere. Poker Under the Stars is your chance to be a part of something special while contributing to a worthy cause. A portion of the proceeds will also go towards those who have been affected by the hurricane.

Join us for a night of luxury, excitement, and impact—where every hand dealt helps to change a life.
