A business model to set Gibraltar ahead in Europe

New Gala Coral casino complex

Last week Gala Coral Group unveiled a 35,000-square foot development in the heart of Gibraltar which, for the first time ever, incorporates a casino, bingo club and betting shop all under one roof. The unique, multi-branded venue offers a range of captivating zones which can be discovered 24 hours a day and represents Gala Coral’s largest single unit investment to date: £6million in total.

The site is based over two floors and offers unmatchable gaming experiences including: Casino and Poker Magic (Gala’s unique taster training sessions); a 450 seated bingo hall; a Coral sports lounge; jackpot zones; the Epernay Champagne Bar; an ice bar (18 Degrees Below Zero); and the chic Chargrill Restaurant. The new complex is a business model expected to set Gibraltar ahead of the rest of Europe.

The complex offers not only a totally unique integrated entertainment experience to the region but also first class design. Leading interior consultants and contractors WFC were responsible for the cutting-edge look of the development, based in Gibraltar’s stunning new Ocean Village. Gala Coral Group has worked closely with the Gibraltar Tourist Board, local tour operators, agents and hotels to develop unbeatable day trip packages.

Nick Pardo, Operations Director, Gala Gaming division, said: "This is an enormous and exciting development for Gala Coral, bringing together for the first time our three great gaming brands - Gala Casino, Gala Bingo and Coral betting shops to provide a first class integrated gaming experience."

He added, "This latest innovation reinforces Gala Coral’s aim to ensure that our customers are offered the finest entertainment and gambling experience. People remain the key focus of our business. That’s also why in Gibraltar, as in the UK, we continue to support the local community, train, develop and reward our teams and, of course, maintain a responsible approach to gaming."
