David Schnabel, Managing Director of Merkur Spielbanken, described the unique concept: “We have completely rethought and revised the casino operating concept that has been around in Germany for the past few decades. The result is Germany’s most modern casino and our operating results confirm that with this approach we are on the right track.” Among the success factors he mentioned “the great atmosphere, attractive games, innovative processes and highly qualified staff”. He thanked Tobias Hellbach, Head of Merkur Spielbank Halle and Deputy Head Barbara Kepinski with a large cake in the design of Merkur Spielbanken. “You’ve put together a fantastic team,” said David Schnabel. Tobias Hellbach and Barbara Kepinski have many years of experience in the coin-op sector. In total, the new Merkur Spielbank in Halle has created 20 new jobs. Places are still available on the industry-specific training course leading to the qualification of coin-op specialist due to start in August of this year.
On Saturday, casino visitors were treated to a colourful entertainment programme with promotions and competitions. Highlights included performances by pop singers Oli.P and Marc Terenzi. The winners of the casino competition got to meet the stars at a meet & greet event.
The new Merkur Spielbank in Halle is open from Sundays to Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 3 a.m., and Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 a.m. Admission is free for players over the age of 18 with valid ID.
