Compare before you decide
| Check | Why it matters | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Licence or WA legal context | Map results do not prove that gaming machines are lawfully available. | Open the regulator source below. |
| Hours and entry | Venue and gaming-room hours may differ or change for public holidays. | Use the official venue contact. |
| Transport and access | Distance alone does not show safe return transport, parking or individual access needs. | Use the Trip Planner and official transport source. |
Check before you visit

- Check membership, guest, dress and 18+ entry conditions.
- Confirm parking, accessible entry and toilets for individual needs.
