It’s Casino Night At Your Place

It’s your turn to host and you feel like doing something a little different. Why not host a home casino night?

Home casino nights are a whole pile of fun. It’s like a regular party but with added glamour, buzz and a few fun activities for the guests to focus on.

Who could say no?

Let’s dive in for some practical easy tips to turn your home casino night into an all-out success.

First step: get acquainted with the games

Before you get to planning the party, you need to figure out what kind of games you want to play. Head to a good online casino and you can try out loads of different types of games. Our top tip is to try out somewhere that has a decent Live Casino experience, so you can interact with dealers in real time and see exactly what they do.

One great spot to do that is bet365. They’ve got amazing quality games and a range of budgets. Plus you can get a fantastic new player offer when you use this bet365 bonus code.

Once you’ve played a few games, figure out what you like best. Then think about the equipment you’d need to play these games. Card games are a natural choice. The likes of baccarat or blackjack only really require cards and chips to get going.

Roulette at the very least requires a wheel. You can often find great deals for these on secondhand sites or even a rental. But we wouldn’t recommend spending a whole lot on this brand new, especially if you don’t think you’ll be throwing a whole lot of home casino nights in the future.

Second step: choose your date and tell your guests

When do you want to host your home casino night? In the next week or two or do you plan on hosting a few months from now?

Think about how much prep you’ll need to do and what suits you. You’ll definitely need to do at least some prep before and clean up after, so it’s best to choose a day that you’re not working and have a day off after too.

Then once you’ve got that figured out, let your guests know. About a dozen guests is usually a good size for a home casino night. Not too many for the average house but still enough that it feels relatively busy. But if you have a much bigger or smaller place, of course you can scale up or down.

It’s best to invite people who are into casino games but aren’t on a totally different wavelength to everyone else. Or else people who love to learn and are happy to listen to a few game play rules before things kick off.

Third step: get it all set up

When you’re thinking about your idea home casino night, what comes to mind? Is it a relaxed atmosphere or all out glamour?

If you’re into the glitz and glam, make sure to tell your guests to dress up. But if chilled out is more your vibe, tell them to simply come as they are.

Same goes for the decorations. You could go all out with lots of gold, red and black decorations. Balloons, confetti, garlands. Or you could play it understated. Whatever suits your style.

We’d always recommend providing some nibbles and drinks at a party and a home casino night is no different. If you’re not a culinary whizz, it doesn’t have to be too complicated. Some crisps and a few boxes of chocolates will keep the munchies at bay. But, of course, you could always don your chef’s hat and try out some fancy canapes.

Put together a great playlist, or task a music loving guest to do so, and be ready to hit play as soon as the guests arrive.

And there you have it, the recipe for an amazing home casino night.
