Nobody gambles. They just play, cheer and argue over whether to split their eights. By the end of the night, the person who swore they'd never played is usually the one refusing to leave the table.
Where it works in Nottingham
Colwick Hall, near the racecourse, is a big wedding venue with a large pavilion. Trent Bridge in West Bridgford runs Christmas parties and dinners in its function rooms. Hotels near the Lace Market and the castle host plenty of private parties too.
Hotels around the city centre, golf clubs in the suburbs and village halls out in the county all work too. It mostly comes down to floor space and a sensible way to get the tables in.
If your venue has a separate bar area, that's often the perfect spot.
Planning the timing
Most casino nights run for around three hours. At a wedding, that often means opening the tables after the first dance and closing before the late buffet comes out. At a birthday, it can run from the moment guests arrive.
At a work do, starting the tables straight after dinner keeps people in the room. A shorter session can bring the cost down if that's a concern. Midweek dates are often more flexible.
Leave a few minutes at the end for counting chips and the prize draw.
Casino hire Nottingham for birthdays
A milestone birthday is a good excuse for a bit of glamour. Our birthday casino party page covers the details, from themes to table numbers.
One or two tables tends to be plenty for a house party or a function room of 50 or so. Personalised fun money with the birthday girl or boy's face on it always gets a laugh.
For an 18th or 21st, roulette is the easiest game to start with, since nobody needs to learn anything before the first spin.
What happens after you enquire
We check which casino partners are free on your date and come back with a price, normally within the day. You're not committed to anything, and we won't chase you if you decide against it. We'll also flag anything we'd need from the venue, such as access times.
Start with the quote form. The more you tell us about the venue and the crowd, the more accurate the quote.
Questions before you enquire are welcome too, and our FAQ covers the common ones.
