In staying with modern times and abreast of the latest gambling technology, Sun City now has outdoor slot machines, which is said to be a first for South Africa.

This popular entertainment hub has introduced the first countertop slot and poker machines at its transformed pool area. When Sun City opened in 1979, the world was quite different to the way it is now. Leggy models in ostrich feather plumage were very much part of the glamour of the exciting new hotel and casino, known for sheer extravagance and entertainment.

Times change, however, and not only did a grand dame need a bit of a cosmetic lift to maintain the razzle dazzle for which the resort is world famous, but Sun City kept up with modern times. A central staircase now leads guests down to an entertainment pool level with its core a dedicated DJ island, where curated soundscapes create a vibrant mood by day or night. From dancing under the stars to lounging poolside with signature cocktails, it also now offers the chance to play in the sun.

“With this visionary transformation, the Sun Terrace and pool emerges as a dynamic cultural and lifestyle destination,” says Brett Hoppé, the Resort’s General Manager.

Swimming and sunbathing are still very much on the menu in this area, but MVG members and day card holders can now also spin the wheels on six new countertop machines right at the poolside bar, the first of their kind in South Africa. Each machine offers slots, poker and roulette games, allowing guests to stay close to the water while enjoying a little gaming.

The machines are the same as those found inside the casino, with multiple denominations for classic as well as slots, poker and roulette games.

For those who prefer indoor play or a break from the sun, the casino has also been updated in time for the past December holiday season. The main casino floor has also been refreshed, with slot machines rearranged to improve flow and comfort for players.
