Chile’s Casino de Viña del Mar
October 28, 2002
Casino Municipal de Viña del Mar offers world-class gaming in Chile´s most luxurious resort town, Viña del Mar, near Santiago.
Situated on what is known as the French Riviera of Chile, beautifully situated on the beachfront with visitors arriving year round, Casino de Viña del Mar is one of the most prestigious gaming resorts in Latin America.
Established in 1930, Casino de Viña del Mar’s design and architecture is a beautiful example of the classical style. Consequently, during a recent refurbishment project designed to upgrade the facility, special care was taken to preserve the exclusive look.
As part of the large refurbishment, the casino’s disco/music bar was completely redone in an elegant, upscale style that includes an intelligent lighting system. Key to the bar is a central dance floor outfitted with MAC 2000s and MAC 600s. Tracolight , Martin’s distributor in Chile and installer’s of the first Pal 1200s in the casino’s disco bar back in 1997, supplied the new moving head fixtures.
By December 2002 a luxury hotel and convention center will be added, the city’s only 5 star hotel complex. The center will be equipped with the latest generation of technology including MAC 500 and 600 moving heads with Martin Exteriors illuminating the outdoor façade. The intelligent lighting system will allow the center to attract popular artists and upscale concerts, helping make Casino Municipal de Viña del Mar Hotel & Convention Center one of the most extraordinary casinos in the world.
