Casinos offer a sense of elegance, style, and class. This casino is no different. However, this does not mean that you need to reach for your tux or evening dress. Smart casual is acceptable. This means that we don’t allow football shirts or muscle vests, and trainers and jeans need to be smart. On the other hand, with a late-opening cocktail bar available, there is nothing to stop you embracing casino chic and getting on board with the elegance and style of Genting Casino.

Please make sure that there are no ripped jeans and no beachwear.

For the safety of all patrons, caps and hats are not permitted to be worn on the premises.
