Nicola-Lazenby-EAG Exhibition-Driector,

Casino Life Magazine Interview with Nicola Lazenby Exhibition Director - EAG Expo By Lyudmyla Kyrychenko

Following an auspicious debut earlier this year, the London Casino & Gaming Show is gearing up for its 2026 encore. To learn more, our publisher spoke with Exhibition Director Nicola Lazenby, who filled Casino Life in as to what’s on tap for next year. The conversation has been edited for clarity.

Nicola, the show had a strong debut in 2025. What was the original vision behind the event – and how has that evolved going into its second year?

When we launched the show, it was really about filling a gap in the London events calendar for the land-based casino sector. Operators were clear in their requirements and were telling us for a while that they wanted something more intimate, more focused, and frankly more useful to their day-to-day business.

Casino Life speaks with Andrew Cammegh, sales director of Cammegh Ltd. By Andrew Behan

When talking about roulette, one must mention the name of Cammegh. The Bethersden-based, British firm has been turning out wheels for roulette since 1989. That’s when Bill Cammegh first put his engineering skills into the service of casino table-game products. The rest has been history. Whether it be Las Vegas or Monte Carlo, Macao or Brisbane, you can hardly walk into a reputable casino that doesn’t offer a Cammegh product.
With a select team of 30, Cammegh has not only become known for its roulette wheels but has also branched out into baccarat and blackjack as well. To find out what makes Cammegh spin, Casino Life Publisher Peter White sat down with son Andrew Cammegh. Their conversation has been edited for clarity and length.

Thirty-three years is a good, long run for any casino and in the case of the original Hollywood Joliet, it was time for a change. Its 1992 riverboat remained a solid performer for Penn Entertainment, but it had the aura of being cramped and antiquated. Ergo, Penn opted to move ashore in Illinois, going from the ground up with new, $185 Hollywood Casino Joliet.

Gamban CEO Jack Symons: “Illegal Online Casinos Are Exploiting the Vulnerable — and Regulators Must Act

Jack-Symonds--Co-Founder-Gamban

Although the UK Gambling Commission told them to peddle their wares elsewhere, Gamban is a global force for safer online-gambling experiences. Blocking 190,000 websites speaks for itself. So do a 90 percent customer-satisfaction rating and 55,000 active users. For some straight talk on the unlawful morass that is black-market iGaming, our Peter White sat down with founder and CEO Jack Symons. Their conversation has been lightly edited for clarity.

Illegal online casinos and the affiliates they use openly advertise on social media, often copying the branding of respected operators. Why does it seem that nothing is done—are these billion-dollar social media operations untouchable?

General Manager Ryan Growney reflects on South Point’s growth, its unique equestrian niche, and why value-driven hospitality keeps this Las Vegas resort thriving. By David McKee 

When Coast Casinos CEO Michael Gaughan announced, in 2003, that he would be building a casino-resort predicated upon an equestrian arena, some scoffed. It was such a risky, contrarian thing to do. Gaughan would eventually have the last laugh, but it has been a winding, 20-year journey from then-South Coast’s debut in December 2005.

Legalizing gambling in Brazil means clearing a thicket of social, legal and religious concerns. By Eugene Gerden

The Brazil Senate and national government are continuing active discussions regarding the legalization of casinos, as well as other gambling activities in the country. Recently, a bill that would legalize casinos, bingo halls and jogo do bicho (animal gambling) was officially presented and sent for consideration by the Senate.

This bill authorizes and establishes basic rules for gambling. If approved, it will allow Brazilian companies to offer gambling services subject to the payment of fees and taxes. According to the proposal, only companies
based in Brazil will be able to operate gambling establishments. These would be permitted in special locations authorized by the state.
