20+ Independent guide. We take no bookings and run no games. Casino floors in New Zealand admit guests aged 20 and over.

Long Weekend Aotearoa

The floors

Four venues, four quite different evenings

They share an operator group in three cases out of four, and almost nothing else.

SkyCity Auckland

Auckland

The largest floor in the country and the only one with hotels attached. Tournament rooms host most of the national poker series dates, and the building never really closes.

SkyCity Hamilton

Hamilton

Compact, friendly, and the easiest of the four to walk into on a weeknight. Strong weekly blackjack schedule and function rooms that suit mid-size corporate evenings.

SkyCity Queenstown

Queenstown

Small, lakeside and seasonal. In July and August it fills with the ski crowd; in shoulder season it is the quietest floor in the country.

Christchurch Casino

Christchurch

The oldest casino in New Zealand and the usual home of South Island tournament finals. More traditional than the others, and it enforces its dress code.
