New Swiss Casinos Zürich opened its doors

Designed by internationally acclaimed casino architect Paul Steelman, the casino has taken the mesmerizing style of today's ultra-modern Las Vegas casinos and adapted it to Zürich. Zürich City has added three atmospheric bars, a lounge with a restaurant and a stage for shows.

The two floors are home to 26 gaming tables, including American roulette, Black Jack, Punto Banco and poker, and 400 gaming machines with more than 100 different games and seven jackpots.

The stage offers a venue for shows, comedy and music. Over November 1-3, visitors can see four daily shows featuring the world's top celebrity impersonators of Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Robbie Williams, Amy Winehouse, Louis Armstrong, Joe Cocker and Bette Midler. Las Vegas showgirls bring American flair to the stage, and Swiss DJs Kurtis and LeWax will be heating up the dance floor with live music sets.

Club Privé is another attraction at Swiss Casinos Zürich and is unique in Switzerland. Guests who want to play for higher stakes in a relaxed atmosphere have access to a private area where they will find table games and slot machines.

Swiss Casinos Zürich is open 365 days a year, Sunday to Wednesday from 11 am to 4 am, and Thursday to Saturday from 11 am to 5 am. Admission costs CHF 10; the casino is open to well-dressed guests (collared shirts for men) over the age of 18 and carrying valid government-issued ID.

Swiss Casinos Holding AG is a completely Swiss-owned private company. It is the only domestic company to hold stakes in six prestigious casinos of the 21 casinos in Switzerland.
