Regional casino
A regional casino, more commonly known as a super casino (or occasionally known as mega casino or other variants), is the term given to the largest category of casino that was to have been permitted under UK law – equivalent in size to the larger casinos in Las Vegas. The first regional casino was initially proposed to be in the City of Manchester, but the scheme was scrapped by the UK government in 2008, soon after Gordon Brown became Prime Minister.〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6500859.stm Lords scupper super-casino plan 〕〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7264143.stm Super-casino proposal is ditched 〕

Prior to the act there were 140 casinos in the UK, the largest of which in Star City, Birmingham had a floor area of around . Customers were required to register twenty-four hours prior to gaming.
