C’est Magnifique

Groupe Partouche Partouche Casino Club • Paris, France

In early May, Partouche Casino Club in Paris launched an expansive new high-end gaming venue as part of an overall $115 million investment at the property, located a stone’s throw from both the iconic Arc de Triomphe and the Place de l’Etoile.

The 5,400-square-foot space spans seven stories at the property. Three stories are devoted to live table games, including blackjack, craps and punto banco. But the emphasis is on poker, with 70 tables, dedicated areas for Texas Hold’em and Omaha, and a plan to offer up to three tournaments per day. With capacity for more than 1,000 guests, Partouche Casino Club is now the largest gaming establishment in the French capital.

Other amenities include an Italian-inspired restaurant and additional bistros and bars on every level. A soaring central atrium anchors the destination, illuminated by vivid LED displays.

Maurice Schulmann of operator Groupe Partouche called the club “a place like no other in Europe… at the heart of the world’s leading tourist destination.” Sortir á Paris agreed, calling it “the new temple of gaming” in the City of Lights.

VIP gaming lounges and private areas are expected to open later this year.
