Operated
by Global Gaming Ventures, it will be the third-largest casino in the UK.
Patrick Noakes, venue director, said: "Leeds has never seen an entertainment
destination like this before. We can’t wait for people to step through the
doors and see the spectacular space for themselves. It’s a game changer, not
just for casino fans but for the city as a whole.”
"Victoria Gate Casino will strengthen Leeds’ already diverse entertainment,
dining and nightlife offering and will provide so much more than just gaming.
Our three distinct venues - Live Bar, Curve and V Restaurant - will play a
pivotal role in that,” added Noakes.
With a capacity of 1,400, the casino will be one of the biggest entertainment
venues in the city, with a 100-player poker room, 24 live gaming tables, 140
slot machines and 75 electronic gaming terminals.
The casino, which is the first and only "super casino” in the north of England,
occupies 50,000sq.ft and sits alongside John Lewis at the top of the city’s new
Victoria Gate development.
