The hostess, alongside promotional staff, will be informing the public about the ongoing event as well as handing out invites to the casino’s birthday party on Saturday 26th January at the casino.
Drag Queen Bingo will be played in the lower poker area of the casino from 1pm with a fizz reception to welcome guests from 12pm. Entertainment will continue throughout the Saturday with a birthday buffet at 4pm before the celebrations move to Victoria Gate Casino’s Live Bar from 8pm for live entertainment from the Viaduct show team and musician Lucinda Vamp.

The plans will see the site, which is currently a temporary surface car park, redeveloped as part of Hammerson’s City Quarters concept.
It aims to create lively mixed-use neighbourhoods around flagship leisure and retail centres.
This latest move follows the recent submission of mixed-use planning applications for Martineau Galleries in Birmingham, the Goodsyard in Shoreditch and a residential development adjacent to Dundrum in Dublin.
The iconic building is designed by ACME, the same architect that planned and delivered Victoria Gate. It will also feature on-site gym and conferencing facilities; a new contemporary bar and restaurant on the ground floor will welcome both guests and visitors to the city.
Nearly 1000 construction jobs could also be supported during the construction period.
