What Regency Entertainment does

Regency Entertainment S.A. is a privately held Greek entertainment and hospitality group founded in 1994, operating an integrated portfolio across land-based casinos, luxury hotels, entertainment venues, and online gaming. Its core operations include Regency Casino Mont Parnes in the Athens metropolitan area, Regency Casino Thessaloniki (described as one of the largest and most luxurious casinos in Europe), the five-star Hyatt Regency Thessaloniki hotel, and the Vergina Theatro entertainment venue in Thessaloniki. The company employs approximately 2,000 people directly and has contributed over €3 billion to the Greek state in direct and indirect taxes, fees, and insurance contributions across 30+ years of operation.

The company's revenue is generated through four primary streams: land-based casino gaming (table games and slot machines generating house-edge margins), hospitality services (hotel rooms, F&B, conference and event venue rental), entertainment ticket sales and venue hire, and — newly launched in May 2026 — online casino gaming via regencycasino.gr, powered by SkillOnNet's B2B technology platform and operating under a Hellenic Gaming Commission Type 2 license. The online platform offers 3,000+ games from providers including Evolution, NetEnt, Play'n GO, Playtech, Pragmatic Play, and Relax Gaming, with Greek-language live dealers.

Regency is currently executing its largest capital project, the €380 million Project VORIA mixed-use development in Marousi (northern Athens), scheduled to open May 2028. The project is structured as a public-private partnership via North Star Entertainment A.E. (51% Athens Resort Casino / 49% ETAD), with METLEN as construction contractor, WATG as architect, and Accor's MGallery Collection operating the 170-room five-star hotel under a 25-year management agreement. Project VORIA is projected to generate €140 million in annual revenue and approximately 2,000 direct and indirect jobs upon completion. The company is also pursuing European online gaming expansion into UK, Denmark, Spain, Sweden, and Germany pending regulatory approvals.
