The operator of Dragonara Casino, Dragonara Gaming, has been granted a new 10-year concession by the government of Malta. This new concession, which commenced in August, comes as a result of an international request for proposals earlier this year.
As part of the agreement, Dragonara Gaming has committed to investing EUR 10 million during the concession period. The investment will be directed towards the development and restoration of the iconic Dragonara Palace and its adjoining grounds. Additionally, the company plans to introduce new entertainment concepts that will complement the existing casino operations, further leveraging the potential of the Dragonara peninsula.
The CEO of Dragonara Gaming expressed enthusiasm for the future, highlighting their vision to transform and modernize the Dragonara Casino when they took over its operations in 2010. Through aggressive and strategic investments, the casino reestablished itself as the leading casino in Malta and gained international acclaim.
Despite the challenges posed by COVID-19 restrictions in recent years, Dragonara Gaming remains committed to continuing their investment in the sector and developing the Dragonara peninsula into a unique and exciting destination in one of Europe’s best locations.
The new 10-year concession ensures the longevity and stability of Dragonara Casino’s operations, reaffirming its position as a key player in Malta’s casino industry. This development is separate from the 64-year lease extension previously secured for the casino’s real estate, which ensures the casino’s presence in St. Julian’s for years to come. Alongside Dragonara Casino, Malta is home to three other licensed casinos, namely Portomaso Casino, Casino Malta, and the Oracle Casino.
