Chicago Monte Casino Age Restriction
This article delineates the age of candidacy laws of the federal government and individual states of the United States.
Chicago Monte Casino Age Restrictions
- Since alcohol is served on the casino floor, 18-year-olds cannot gamble there. However, the poker rooms and the bingo hall are located in a separate area where 18-year-olds are allowed to play. The poker parlor offers games of Texas Hold'em and Omaha, plus bounty and no-limit tournaments where you could win as much as $10,000.
- The City of Chicago is currently in Phase Four: 'Gradually Resume.' Many City services have adjusted hours or locations and may require health screens prior to entering their physical. Please call ahead or visit any department's website to get additional details, or visit chicago.gov/covid-19.
Unlike Vegas and Indiana, Illinois casino’s are required to close for two hours everyday. If you decide to pull an all-nighter you may have to leave the casino. I’ve seen people sit (or sleep) in their cars until the casino reopens. The minimum gambling age in Illinois and Indiana is 21. Getting there: Free Chicago area Casino Shuttles. Montecasino brings world class theatre productions to diverse audiences at our two theatres in Johannesburg – The Teatro at Montecasino and Pieter Toerien's Theatre and Studio. Shows at our Johannesburg theatres are varied and include some of the best loved musicals, drama, comedy shows and a host of other local and international performances. We were going to take our daughter to Soaring Eagle in Mt. Pleasant Michigan for her 18th birthday. Now she decides she wants to go to Chicago to see Wicked. Is there any places near Chicago that has 18 as the legal age to gamble? We found a Michigan casino that was near the Indiana border, but it was 21.
