Create an evening to remember
Our fun casino evenings provide great entertainment while giving our students the chance to practise their croupier skills in a realistic environment. These events are for fun only and operate through ‘funny money’: owing to gambling legislation, no-one is allowed to personally gain from the evening but there is the opportunity to raise money for charity.
A choice of events
Our fun casino evenings can be tailored to your individual needs. Choose from the following two options:
- No cost to guests – We will greet your guests and present them with a pre-determined amount of ‘funny money’, which they can use to play at the tables for fun.
- Guests to make a charitable donation – With this option you guests will be able to purchase ‘funny money’, with the proceeds being donated to a charity of your choice.*
A casino dinner package, including a welcome cocktail/mocktail, an hour’s fun gaming on the tables and slot machines plus a sumptuous three-course dinner in our Level 6 Restaurant is also available. Contact us on E level6@blackpool.ac.uk or T 01253 504157 for details.

*Casino nights can be held as non-commercial prize gaming. The players must be told which good cause will benefit from the profits of the gaming before placing a bet. The prizes must be advertised in advance and must not depend on the number of people playing or the stakes raised. In non-commercial prize gaming, the casino gaming determines the individual winner or winners, who are then awarded the prizes that have been advertised in advance. (www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk )
**Please note: events based further than file miles away will incur additional transportation costs.
