SkyCity Entertainment Group Limited announced that it expects to fully re-open its gaming, entertainment and hospitality facilities in Adelaide on 29 June 2020 as part of the South Australian Government's three-stage approach to re-opening the economy and easing the COVID-19 restrictions. Consistent with the approach adopted when re-opening its New Zealand properties at Alert Level 2, SkyCity expects to re-open the Adelaide Casino in a staged manner with reduced operating hours, based on expected customer demand. Specific re-opening plans include: casino access initially limited to "active" members; capacity subject to maximum patronage of one person per two square metres at any given time (represents around 2,200 people, including staff); re-opening most food and beverage outlets (in addition to The Guardsman and Madame Hanoi which re-opened in early June 2020); adherence to strict physical distancing measures, including configuring electronic gaming machines to allow appropriate physical distancing, limiting customers at each gaming table and ensuring appropriate spacing at restaurants and bars; infrastructure established to support contact tracing, primarily through surveillance, guest registers, identity scanning and use of loyalty cards; and enhanced hygiene protocols. As previously flagged to the market, the Adelaide Casino expansion and associated master planning projects continue to progress well and remain on-budget and on-time for an October 2020 completion. The expansion is expected to open in a staged manner reflecting customer demand, with a focus initially on local and interstate customers given ongoing international border restrictions.
