Mauritius.- Mauritius\u2019s Caudan Waterfront Casino<\/strong> is marking 30 years of operations <\/strong>in 2026, highlighting its role in the country\u2019s land-based gaming sector and its location within the tourism and leisure district of the Caudan Waterfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opened in 1996 as part of the redevelopment of Port Louis\u2019 harbour area, the casino has operated alongside the wider Caudan Waterfront complex, which combines retail outlets, restaurants, cultural venues and nightlife attractions.<\/strong> Over three decades the waterfront has developed into one of Mauritius\u2019s best-known leisure destinations for both tourists and local visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Caudan Waterfront team said: \u201cYesterday marked the official launch of our 30th anniversary celebrations.\u201d The commemorative campaign also highlights the diverse mix of attractions<\/strong> available at the waterfront complex. \u201cThis logo represents the whole panoply of offerings we have at Caudan,\u201d added the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
