The grand re-opening of Star City Casino was one of the most exciting events that Australia's gambling industry has seen in quite some time. Local and international celebrities gathered at the newly renovated Star City to see just exactly how posh and exquisite the popular casino has become.
Over 300 VIPs were in attendance at the exclusive event. All were treated to Dom Perignon all night, after being ushered to the casino in multi-million dollar yachts. Ronan Keating,Kate Richie and Russell Crowe are just some of the celebrities that showed up for the event. Even international superstar Leonardo DiCaprio made an appearance at this exclusive event.
This may all seem a little bit excessive, but we're certain it's not. The cost of the lavish grand opening party is likely a drop in the bucket for Star City's CEOs, who spent $850 million renovating the casino. In addition to enhancing the gaming floor, many other changes were made to Star City, which has been called 'tacky' in the past. World-class restaurants have been added, as well as some beautiful new accomodations for guests.
Star City CEOs hope that the new image will bring in new clientele, likely with more money to spend on life luxuries.
