Is it a real casino?
No, there is no real gambling involved in the wine casino. We issue each of your guests with "fun money" and their own tasting glass. The fun money can be personalised with your photography or company logo and is exchanged at the casino tables for real clay casino chips with which they can place bets. The professional tasting glasses are attached to a rope which can be placed over ones head to allow use of both hands, perhaps to take notes, but most importantly to place bets! Tasting glasses can be personalised with your logo, or even engraved. You choose whether guests keep them as a memento or return them to us.

How does it work?
If the theory is correct, the most proficient wine taster should win the highest number of chips over the course of the casino. However, lady luck will always play her part in the proceedings and guests have the chance to multiply their chips on the Roulette du Vin at which spot prizes may also be won! At the end of the wine casino, participants "cash in" their chips with our croupiers and we'll determine the best performers who receive prizes.

How long does the casino last?
The duration of the wine casino can be tailored to suit your event needs. They are the perfect accompaniment to a gala dinner, celebration or as entertainment following a hard day in conference. Wine casinos are spectacularly successful at encouraging guest interaction and generating a superb feel good factor. Generally, a time period of up to three hours should be allowed.

Can I add traditional casino games?
Yes, through our sister company Corporate Casinos, we also provide authentic fun casinos with a huge range of full size tables including Roulette, Blackjack, Wheel of Fortune, Various derivatives of Poker, Punto Banco, Chuck A Luck and Craps (Dice). Everything will be provided from one source. You can see further details of traditional casino games at www.corporatecasinos.com.

Do we need to be wine experts?
No, not at all. Wine casinos are suitable for all levels of expertise ranging from absolute novice to qualified Sommeliers. Above all, our wine casinos are designed to deliver enjoyment. We do hope that you'll leave a little bit better informed about the wonderful world of wines. With your new found knowledge, purchasing wine from those racks in the supermarket will be both more enjoyable and we hope you'll consistently choose wines of real quality!

What size groups do you cater for?
We can organise a wine casino for groups of 20 to 1,000

Where can I hold a wine casino? 
We operate across the United Kingdom and will travel overseas. We can hold a wine casino in the venue of your choice be it a hotel, conference centre, place of work or your home. The main factor to consider is the size of the casino tables which are all full size and constructed from solid oak.

Who croupiers the tables?
Wine casino tables are hosted by Sommelier wine experts who have been selected as much for their friendly nature, wit and candour, as for their subject expertise. Traditional casino tables are hosted by professional croupiers.

What is your experience of events?
We have over fifteen years experience in the events world, providing thousands of events whilst working with blue chip clientele and private individuals. Our team is headed by David Spenceley who is a full member of The Association of British Professional Conference Organisers.

Do you have additional themes and entertainment?
Yes, we own a huge range of props and themes. Ranging from prohibition themes to fire and ice, if you need a theme just ask and we'd be delighted to produce a bespoke proposal.

How much does a wine casino cost?
