The Casin\u00f2 Locarno sits right in the heart of Locarno, just a few steps from the famous Piazza Grande and the boat landing on Lake Maggiore. The casino is housed in the historic former Kursaal, which has served as a Kursaal and casino since 1910. In 2002 the venue opened under the new Swiss Gambling Act with a Type B licence from the Swiss Federal Gaming Board (ESBK). That licence has been renewed for the years 2025 to 2044. <\/p>\n
The gaming floor offers around 160 slot machines with seven linked jackpots as well as a classic table game selection with American roulette, multi-roulette, blackjack and Ultimate Texas Hold’em, complemented by two progressive jackpots at the tables. Entry is free; all that is required is valid ID and a minimum age of 18. Since 2022, Casin\u00f2 Locarno SA has been wholly owned by Stadtcasino Baden AG. <\/p>\n
A particular feature is the location right beside the festival grounds: during the Locarno Film Festival, the Piazza Grande on the doorstep turns into one of the world’s largest open-air cinemas, and the casino is an official supporter of the festival. Since March 2026, Casin\u00f2 Locarno SA has also operated its own legal Swiss online casino, Casineo. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
