The UK’s biggest casino is celebrating its relaunch as Genting Casino Stratford with a four-day celebration featuring top DJs, live music and exciting gaming promotions.
Genting Casinos UK, one of the country’s biggest leisure and entertainment businesses, acquired the casino from former owners Aspers last April, and is planning a high seven-figure revamp to the venue, introducing new electronic gaming equipment and refreshing the food and drinks areas.
The relaunch celebrations will begin with a VIP event on Thursday July 31st, and continue on Friday August 1st with a live show from popular singer songwriter Beverley Stone, who has previously played at iconic venues such as Ronnie Scott’s and the 606 Club.
On Saturday August 2nd, guests can enjoy free sets from DJs Dean McCollough, Rickie & Melvin and Kimberly Watt from 7pm with a 4pm-10pm happy hour with 2 for 1 cocktails.

Genting plans to grow the casino’s popular poker offering, continuing to offer daily cash games and hosting big tournaments throughout the year, including British Poker Series events. The casino is known as a leading poker venue, with more than 35 poker tables; two Heads Up Hold’em Progressive Poker tables; and two Prime 3 Card Progressive Poker tables.
Both existing and new members will benefit from the market-leading My Genting rewards scheme, allowing them to earn points on every visit, which can be put towards free play on Slots, E-tables and live gaming, or redeemed on food and drink. The Genting Rewards App gives 10% off all drinks and a chance to earn more points by completing App Badges and Challenges.
