In a striking affirmation of Monte-Carlo’s enduring status as a global capital of gaming and glamour, the Casino Café de Paris celebrated this weekend a remarkable milestone: more than €200 million in jackpots distributed since January 1, 2025. The figure, representing over 20,000 individual jackpots exceeding €1,500 in just eight months, underscores the venue’s growing appeal in an increasingly competitive European gaming landscape.
To mark the occasion, the Casino hosted an elaborate soirée on Saturday, September 13, themed around global travel. Over 1,500 guests were welcomed into a transformed gaming floor that evoked the sights, sounds, and cultures of Spain, Brazil, Kenya, and Japan. Artistic performances from across four continents animated the evening, culminating in a tombola awarding €20,000 in luxury travel packages to four lucky guests.
This milestone follows on the heels of another notable event earlier this year: the European launch of “Kong Skull Island” slot machines, in collaboration with Light & Wonder, in June 2025. The Casino Café de Paris has become known for such ambitious showcases, blending entertainment, technology, and immersive design to elevate the gaming experience.
Adding to the festivities, the Casino unveiled a new prize draw set to run from September 26 to October 12. Participants in the My Monte-Carlo loyalty program will be eligible - one entry per person, per day - for a chance to win the newly launched all-electric Mercedes-Benz CLA, boasting a 790-kilometer range and valued at €60,350. The vehicle will be on public display in the iconic Place du Casino, with the winner selected in a private drawing on October 13.
Home to nearly 380 state-of-the-art slot machines - the most extensive offering on the French Riviera - the Casino Café de Paris continues to attract both seasoned players and newcomers. As the establishment surpasses this €200 million benchmark, it signals not just a remarkable year of winnings, but also Monte-Carlo’s enduring prowess as a hub of European leisure and luxury.
