Frequently Asked Questions
Is a fun casino legal?
All Casinos Direct events are run inline with the British Gaming Laws and so they are 100% legal. remember, there is no money being staked at the tables so there is no actual gambling taking place.
How long does a fun casino last?
Casinos Drirect fun casino package lasts for 3 consecutive hours as this works really well. It is no problem for the casino to be paused, for instance for speeeches to take place or the first dance at a wedding party.
If you require the fun casino to run longer than 3 consecutive hours this can be arranged at the time of booking for an additional cost.
How does a fun casino operate?
Casinos Direct will set up the gaming equipment at a pre-arranged time at your venue. Just before the casino is 'open'our friendly staff will give your guests 'fun money' which they can then exchange at the gaming tables for chips.
How do we know who is the winner?
At any point during the 3 hour fun casino a player can 'cash-in' their chips which means the croupier will take down their name and the amount of chips. At the end of the fun casino the winnder is determined by the one that accumlated the most chips.
Is there a prize?
The prize is usually provided by you and so you can choose whether to have a 'winner takes all' prize or maybe 'best lady' and 'best gent' or perhaps something for the bext youngster. There is no need for the prize to be expensive, it is often just a bottle of bubbly however we do advise some sort of prize to encourage friendly competition.
Can I have a fun casino anywhere?
More or less yes as long as there is enough room! We can even set up outdoors if there is shelter over the tables. For a roulette table you will need about 3m x 1.5m and for Blackjack 2.5m x 1.5m
What games should I book?
In our experience Blackjack and Roulette work the best at a social gathering but if you have something else in mind, for example Dice please get in touch as we can provide other games.
How does a fun casino raise funds at a charitable event?
The most popular way is to sell the fun money to your guests but there are also other options for example inviting companies to sponsor a table or raffling the numbers on the roulette wheel. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
