Over the decades it has hosted a cinema, an amusement arcade, a shopping center, and even the SegaWorld theme park during the 1990s. Now, Genting UK wants to breathe new life into the property by blending its historic character with contemporary casino entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>The new casino will cover parts of the basement, ground, and first floors, with a gaming floor of up to 16,000 square feet. Back-of-house and staff facilities will be located in the basement to support the operation.<\/p>\n<h2>Creating a \u201cLondon Strip\u201d of Casinos<\/h2>\n<p>Genting intends to position the Trocadero project alongside other West End casinos, <strong>describing the area as a \u201cLondon Strip.\u201d<\/strong> With 24-hour operations planned, the venue will compete directly with The Hippodrome, Empire Casino Leicester Square, and Horizons Casinos. Genting already runs 28 properties across the UK, including four in Mayfair, giving the operator a strong presence in the capital.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/betus\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"BetUS\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/BetUS.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/betus\/\" title=\"BetUS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">BetUS<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong><strong>Get 125% \/ $2,500 on 1st deposit!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.

Additional basement facilities will cater to casino guests, making the site a multi-level leisure destination.<\/p>\n<h2>Sustainability, Safety, and Community Impact<\/h2>\n<p>The redevelopment is designed as a sustainable retrofit rather than a total rebuild. Genting aims to preserve the Trocadero\u2019s architectural fa\u00e7ades and heritage details, while updating interiors with new shopfronts, signage, and public realm improvements in partnership with the property\u2019s owner.<\/p>\n<p>Safety and responsibility are also central to the plan. The casino will implement 24\/7 CCTV, trained door staff, and a comprehensive management strategy to protect visitors and the surrounding community. Entry will be restricted to customers aged 25 and above, with Genting highlighting an emphasis on inclusivity and diverse patronage.<\/p>\n<p>The company estimates the project will generate up to 350 jobs, with training and career development opportunities, particularly aimed at young people joining the hospitality industry.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/london-trocadero-casino-development\/\">Genting UK to Transform London Trocadero Into Casino and Leisure Hub<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/\">iGaming.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the West End\u2019s most famous landmarks is about to get a new chapter.
