A Theatre Changed Into Casino Excellence
Standing proudly on Cranbourn Street in Leicester Square since 1900, our establishment represents a stunning fusion of theatrical heritage and contemporary gaming quality. Originally designed by famous architect the architect Frank Matcham, the structure served as a theatre featuring circus entertainment acts, aquatic entertainment spectacles, and diverse performances before its conversion into among of London’s top gaming destinations.
When we opened our doors as a casino in 2012, the £40 million million restoration project thoughtfully preserved the Grade II listed property’s architectural splendor while incorporating state-of-the-art gaming facilities. The authentic ornate ornamentation, sweeping stairs, and golden details remain intact, forming an ambiance where historic Victorian grandeur combines with contemporary entertainment. This confirmed historical heritage makes The Hippodrome online casino not merely a place to play, but a destination where patrons walk through layers of London’s theatrical history.
