Licensing and Operations

The operator holds a UK Gambling Commission operating licence. According to the Commission’s public register, the licence status is active.

The operating licence authorises the company to provide non-remote gambling facilities to the public in Great Britain. In practice, this includes gaming machines and other amusement-with-prizes style gambling typically found in a family entertainment centre and associated casino area. The company appears on the Commission’s list of licensed gambling businesses and is authorised to operate gambling activities on specified premises listed in the regulator’s premises register.

The operator’s activities form part of a wider entertainment offer at Felixstowe Pier, which includes a family entertainment centre with arcade machines, penny falls, mini-bowling and a casino area. These gambling activities fall within the scope of the operating licence and are subject to the regulatory requirements of the Gambling Act 2005 and associated Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice.

There is no publicly available indication on the Gambling Commission register that the company holds remote (online) gambling licences; its licensed activities are non-remote and premises-based.
