After the inaugural tournament ended in a 4.5–4.5 draw, the two teams will meet again at the 2023 Ryder Cup venue for a day of golf, hospitality and executive networking.
Barcelona, August 2026 – Alea, the award-winning iGaming aggregator, and ALL IN Platform are returning to Marco Simone Golf & Country Club on 2 November 2026 for The Battle for Rome Continues. The invitation-only tournament will bring together senior executives, industry leaders and strategic partners from across the iGaming sector.
The rematch follows the inaugural Battle for Rome in November 2025, where Team Alea and Team ALL IN Platform could not be separated after finishing level at 4.5–4.5. This year, each side will field 25 players as they compete to settle the score and claim the trophy.
A total of 50 invited players will take part at Marco Simone, the host course of the 2023 Ryder Cup and one of Europe’s best-known golfing destinations. Once play concludes, the programme will continue with pre-dinner drinks, an awards presentation and a banquet dinner, where additional invited guests will join the players.
Throughout the day, the tournament will also provide opportunities for attendees to reconnect with industry partners, develop new relationships and spend time together away from the traditional conference setting.
Märit, Head of PR & Comms at Alea, said:
Last year’s event showed how valuable it is to bring our partners together in a setting where competition and cooperation are equally matched. Our partners can look forward to a day that people will genuinely remember at one of the best golf courses in Europe, all while competing to get that trophy home. After last years draw, this year a clear winner will rise. Good luck to all contenders for the Battle for Rome.
John Foster, CCO at ALL IN Platform, said:
A 4.5–4.5 draw was never going to be the final word. Returning to Marco Simone with Alea gives us the chance to build on the energy of last year’s event and finally see which team comes out on top.
Participation will be strictly limited to 50 invited players, while the evening banquet will be open to a wider group of selected guests.
