Crown Resorts has revealed the long-awaited launch of gaming operations at Crown Sydney will take place on Monday 8 August 2022 after the company was given the green light by the NSW regulator last month.

The impending opening of the AU$2.2 billion property’s casino comes almost 20 months after non-gaming operations commenced in December 2020, with Crown having been found unsuitable to hold a casino license following the Bergin inquiry.

With Crown having since undergone a substantial corporate makeover, the NSW Liquor and Gambling Authority recently issued Crown with a conditional license which it said would give the regulator additional time to monitor the final phase of Crown’s restricted gaming licence suitability assessment.

The casino at Crown Sydney is targeted towards premium players and set over two high-end VIP gaming rooms – the Crystal Room and Mahogany Room – with 12 additional exclusive private Sky Salons located on levels 28 and 29. The facilities feature approximately 160 gaming tables and 70 electronic table games, as well as premium dining options and outdoor terrace areas for members.

Only the Crystal Room will open its gaming floor on 8 August with Mahogany Room to open at a later date, Crown announced Monday.

“The opening of our gaming operations at Crown Sydney is a defining moment for Crown, and the culmination of months of hard work from our dedicated team,” said Crown Sydney CEO, Simon McGrath.

“The entire team at Crown Sydney has been preparing for this moment for a long time and we felt the symbolism of the 08.08 date represented ideal timing to open our doors. We look forward to showcasing our exclusive and unique gaming experience to our VIP members and their guests from next month.

“We are committed to delivering a safe and responsible gaming environment for all, and Crown Sydney’s restricted gaming facility has been designed with the highest levels of governance and compliance. It is the only casino of its kind in Australia, with all patrons required to be a member or guest of a member and undergo comprehensive checks.

“The gaming floors at Crown Sydney set a new standard in luxury and elegance – from the design of the room to the overall member experience. The salon floors are flooded with natural light to highlight our unparalleled waterfront views, while the finishes and furnishings are of the highest quality and standard.”
