On June 26, the NOVOMATIC Group celebrated the opening of its second casino operation in the independent region of Andalusia in Spain: Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla. After a year of meticulous renovation and refurbishment, the new casino complex welcomes guests to a splendid gaming, dining and entertainment offer that sets new standards in and around Seville.

After about one year of renovation and refurbishment, the new Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla officially opened its doors with a big event for more than 300 invitees and VIP guests. Delegates such as Manuel Vázquez Martín, General Director of Taxes, Finance and Gaming of the Spanish Government in Andalusia, as well as Jose Luis Sanz, the Major of Tomares, and representatives of the local municipality, executives and leading representatives of major business partners and tourist institutions, key players of the Spanish casino industry, specialist media and the local press were joined by top executives of NOVOMATIC Spain and ADMIRAL Casinos Spain.

The event was hosted by the management team of ADMIRAL Casinos Spain and NOVOMATIC Spain who were proud to introduce the ADMIRAL brand to the region of Seville. Keynote speakers Manfred Schartner, Managing Director ADMIRAL Casinos Spain, and Francisco Vidal, COO ADMIRAL Casinos Spain welcomed guests to an evening programme of culinary delights, entertainment and surprises. The agenda included a magic show performance, live music, as well as a full presentation of the complete offer of the venue – but first and foremost: drinks, dinner and a party to celebrate the arrival of the Casino ADMIRAL in Seville.

The newest member of the Spanish ADMIRAL casino estate is located in Tomares, a small town at the summit of Aljarafe hills, outside Seville. First opened in 2006 under the original name Gran Casino Aljarafe as the first and only casino in Seville, it was acquired by the NOVOMATIC Group in 2016. Detailed planning and the complete renovation and refurbishment of the majority of the premises created a venue that now complies with the high NOVOMATIC quality standards. It took more than a year and an investment of some EUR 6 million to complete the new Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla – with 7,000 sqm of space for gaming floors, Poker areas, restaurants and show venues to cater for a complete entertainment offer. Also, the casino has created additional jobs in the region.

Most of the facilities of the former Grand Casino Aljarafe have been rearranged and the entire utilization modified to create a guest experience in the true ADMIRAL casino and entertainment style. The refurbishment also created new space with two terraces and an extended gaming area. 1,000 sqm of floor space comprises ultra-modern live tables, slots and sport betting terminals, as well as a dedicated Poker Room for weekly poker tournaments as well as hosting the national and regional Poker series. The casino offers the largest variety of live games in the entire province of Seville: Poker cash tables (Omaha & Texas Hold’em), American Roulette, Black Jack and Caribbean Poker, as well as two modern electronic Roulettes. Moreover, Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla has more than 100 state-of-the-art slot machines with leading games and the latest in terms of technology.

The Admiral Arena Sports Bar has been added to the casino offer providing sports betting with all the amenities that real sports lovers deserve: a great social atmosphere and large video walls to enjoy the most exciting football matches, rugby, super bowl or any other sports event, together with friends and fellow sports fans. Special culinary delights are offered by the Kaori restaurant with its new Sushi Bar and Teppanyaki grill or at the Miami Lounge Bar that puts on a tasty menu based on Spanish and Andalusian specialities in a beautiful outdoor area with a wood-burning oven and a lavish BBQ grill.

The full-service offer at Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla is complemented by the 500 sqm event and convention venue Sala Tarsis. Its features, location and infrastructure recommend it as the perfect place to organize social events, seminars or business meetings. The experienced team at the Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla is on hand to organize any kind of private or public event.

The result of the transformation of the Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla is a new and modern integral space for leisure and entertainment near the largest city of Andalusia that combines leading technology, excellence in service and premium entertainment in true ADMIRAL style. In short, the Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla welcomes guests to a variety of things to enjoy: top gastronomy, regular events & shows, premium gaming and betting technology, poker tournaments, live sports events & much more.

Manfred Schartner, Managing Director ADMIRAL Casinos Spain, said: “This fantastic re-inauguration of the Casino ADMIRAL Sevilla, following the complete refurbishment, is another important step in growing our operational business in Andalusia and Spain. The positive feedback we receive daily from our customers and partners is a big motivation for us to continue our successful strategy.”
