Construction on Sun International’s R4-billion Time Square casino and hotel development in Menlyn Maine, Tshwane, is fully on track, with the casino due to open on time in April 2017. This will be followed by the 8,000-seat Arena in September 2017 and the hotel complex in March 2018. Gaming equipment will start moving onto the site in February.
Time Square – which will be the second largest casino in South Africa (after GrandWest) with 2,000 slot machines and 60 tables – represents the biggest development in the hospitality, gaming and leisure industry since the construction of Sun International’s GrandWest Casino in Cape Town, in 2000.

Sun International’s Michael Farr, Group General Manager of Brand and Communications says: “The complex is now taking shape, with its distinguishing roof now part of the Menlyn skyline”.
“About 10,000 direct and indirect jobs will have been created during the construction and the initial fit-out and start-up phase. The development will also generate considerable revenue for both provincial and national government by way of taxes and gaming levies. It is anticipated that around R1.7-billion in gaming taxes and VAT will be generated in the first five years of operation at Menlyn Maine and the total estimated revenue to Government from the project over a five year period is estimated at around R2.7-billion.”
Time Square will also offer a new concept in hospitality in that it will offer a range of hotel star accommodation in a single building: 3-star accommodation with 96 rooms, 4-star accommodation with 94 rooms and 5-star accommodation with 48 rooms and suites.
