What counts as a casino here
This list covers active land-based casino venues operating under the New Zealand casino licensing framework. It does not include pubs or clubs with Class 4 pokies, racecourses, lotteries, sports betting or online casinos.
Why older sources say six
Historic official reports, tourism copy and third-party directories may still reflect the earlier six-venue set or describe Wharf as active. Status is time-dependent, so this guide keeps the closed record separate.
