The Grand Casino Bern – closed Grand Casino Bern is temporarly closed. The Cantonal Government has decided on comprehensive measures to minimise the spread of coronavirus infections. The casino and Crazy Daisy Kitchen Bar will therefore remain closed, probably until 7 december 2020. Every day here is a new challenge. This is where the magic happens. In addition to offering its guests the ultimate in gambling, fun and entertainment, the Grand Casino Bern also provides its staff with varied and interesting roles in a unique setting.
Casinos Austria International’s Grand Casino Bern in Kursaal has become the latest land-based casino in Switzerland to launch an online gambling website.
The 7melons.ch website is now live and offers a range of online casino games to players in Switzerland.
The site will operate under Grand Casino Bern’s online gambling licence, which, secured in November last year, permits the operator to run online casino games alongside its existing land-based offering. Another Casinos Austria International property, Casino Interlaken, launched igaming under the StarVegas.ch domain in February this year.
