The private gaming rooms at The Star are by invitation only, Blackcoin with an application form for membership as an International, Interstate or local member available from the casino. The Star Entertainment Group’s chief executive Steve McCann had flogged assets, sold out of Brisbane, squeezed the government for regulatory mercy and nearly secured a long-term funding deal, only to come up short. Major events attract quite a crowd and the bar holds pre and post event entertainment such as cheerleaders, face-painting and discounted drinks. The banks will not release another $100 million in debt unless Star can raise more money.
Security teams, ID checks, and self-exclusion policies are maintained rigorously, augmented by the Responsible Gambling Support Centre and dedicated staff education programs. Casual venues offer 24-hour access to snacks, cocktails, and lounging, making The Star a round-the-clock destination. The Star’s casino floor is one of the largest in the Southern Hemisphere.
