Casinos in New Zealand
1 venue recorded across 1 regions and destinations.
New Zealand licensed six casinos in the 1990s and then closed the door: the Gambling Act 2003 prohibits any new casino venue licences, so the existing properties in Auckland, Hamilton, Christchurch, Dunedin and Queenstown constitute the entire market.
The Auckland property is the largest and sits at the base of the Sky Tower, which was built as part of the same development. Harm-minimisation requirements are comparatively strict, with host responsibility programmes and exclusion orders written into the licence conditions.
