Grosvenor Casino on St James Boulevard to relaunch as G Casino Newcastle this May

From next month, Newcastle residents and visitors will be able to enjoy a brand new entertainment venue in the city when the existing Grosvenor Casino on St James Boulevard completes it £1.5 million refurbishment to become the G Casino Newcastle.

Creating 20 new jobs in the local area, adding to the 80-strong team already in place, all employees will undergo a rigorous training programme to ensure that all casino members experience the highest standard of service and customer care during their visit.

Boasting a late-night bar, plush 42-seater restaurant and weekly live entertainment, the 25,500 square foot casino offers a fun and friendly contemporary environment for beginners and seasoned gamers alike. With 10 gaming tables, 26 electronic roulette tables and 22 slot machines, members will be treated to all the latest technology. The new venue will also feature a 100-seater poker room and will play host to regular cash poker tournaments.

Lee Naugher, General Manager of the G Casino Newcastle said: “The new venue will be much more than just a casino, it’s a leisure venue with everything you could need for a great night out. Whilst we’ll still be catering for gamers, we now offer an alternative night out for those interested in simply enjoying the restaurant and late night bar or experiencing the fantastic live entertainment on offer. Plus, as we’re based on the outskirts of town, it’s an excuse to get out of the city centre and we have a large free parking area for our members to use when visiting the venue.”

The G Casino Newcastle will also offer the newly launched ‘PlayPoints’ reward scheme, where customers collect points to claim rewards for a range of high-street products, food, drink and gaming chips at the casino. To celebrate the launch of the new venue, G Casino is offering one lucky customer the chance to win a brand new Volkswagen Fox*! Anyone who uses the new G PlayPoints loyalty card in any area of the G Casino Newcastle (including the bar, restaurant, electronic and table gaming) during 7th May – 28th May will automatically be entered into the prize draw. The draw will take place at midnight on 28th May 2010 and the winner will need to be in the casino at the time of the draw.
