How much does casino hire cost?

Here's the short answer. A fun casino with two or three tables typically costs £450 to £900 for around three hours. That usually covers the tables, croupiers to run them and fun money for your guests.

Where your event sits in that range, or outside it, depends on a handful of things: how many tables, how long, which day, the time of year and where you are. This page goes through each one so you know what to expect before you ask for a quote.

What's usually included

Most fun casino bookings include the tables, a croupier for each table, chips and fun money for your guests, and setting up and packing away. Prize draw help at the end is often part of it too.

Every partner is a little different, though, so we'll confirm exactly what's included with your quote. If there's something you're expecting, like personalised notes or a particular game, mention it when you ask.

Number of tables

This is the biggest factor. Each table comes with its own croupier, so the price goes up as you add tables. As a rough guide, one table handles 15 to 25 guests playing at a time, and not everyone plays at once.

So for 60 guests, two tables is usually enough. For 150, you might want four. Our post on how many casino tables you need goes into it properly.

How long you'd like it

The figure above is for around three hours of play, which suits most events. Longer play usually costs more. A shorter session, say two hours over a drinks reception, can bring it down.

Three hours is about the sweet spot. Any longer and the tables can start to go quiet as people head for the dance floor.

Day of the week and time of year

Fridays and Saturdays are busiest, and Saturdays usually cost more. December is the peak month because of Christmas parties, so expect higher prices and less choice. Summer Saturdays get busy with weddings.

A weeknight can bring the price down. If your date is flexible, tell us, and we'll see which nights work out best.

Where you are

Partners are spread across the UK, so most areas are well covered. Events in London and the South East usually cost more, because of travel, parking and congestion charges, and some venues have tricky access. Very remote locations can add travel costs too. Check casino hire near me for more on coverage.

Extras that add to the price

These are all optional, and they all usually cost more:

  • Personalised fun money with your logo, names or photos
  • Branded table layouts
  • Extra croupiers to keep busy tables moving
  • Themed extras for a Bond, Vegas or Gatsby night
  • Longer or split sessions, such as welcome drinks and again after dinner

Ways to bring it down

Go for one great table rather than three. Roulette on its own works well for a smaller crowd. Choose a weeknight, or keep the session to two hours. And book early, because last minute December dates are rarely a bargain.

We'll always tell you straight if there's a cheaper way to get what you're after.

Corporate casino nights

A fun casino is one of the easiest ways to get a room full of colleagues talking. People who've never said more than hello in the lift end up cheering each other on at the roulette table, and nobody has to be good at anything for it to work.

Wedding casino hire

Not everyone at a wedding wants to dance. There's always a table of uncles, a few friends from work and somebody's plus one who'd rather do anything than the Macarena. A fun casino gives them somewhere to go, and it's a lot more fun than propping up the bar all night.

Christmas party casinos

The Christmas do has a familiar shape. Drinks, dinner, crackers, a speech from the boss, then a long stretch where half the room dances and the other half stands about wondering what to do. A fun casino sorts out that second half.

Birthday casino parties

A big birthday deserves more than a buffet and a playlist. A casino party gives people something to do from the moment they walk in, and it works for every age at the same time. Grandparents, teenagers, old school friends, the neighbours. Everyone can play.
