Casino Luckia Arica

Casino Luckia Arica is the main gaming establishment in Chile's northernmost city, located at the triple border with Peru and Bolivia at the far north of the country. Arica has a unique geopolitical identity in South America: it was Peruvian until 1880, when it passed to Chile as a result of the War of the Pacific, and is the nearest sea outlet for Bolivia, giving it a strategic role in northern continent trade and logistics.

Arica: free trade zone, tourism and geopolitical context

The city operates as a commercial free trade zone and receives constant flow of Peruvian and Bolivian tourists and traders crossing the border to shop, generating a high-activity transit economy. Casino Luckia benefits from this context and serves both the local Arica public and foreign visitors combining shopping and entertainment in the city. Arica is also known for its internationally recognized surf beaches, the Morro de Arica historical viewpoint and the Azapa Valley with the world's oldest Chinchorro mummies.

Gaming offer and regulation

The casino offers slot machines, roulette, blackjack and poker tables, hotel, restaurant and live shows in an integrated complex. It operates under the authorization of the Superintendency of Casinos de Juego (SCJ) and is one of the few SCJ casinos in Chile's far north, distinguishing itself from the municipal casino operating in the same city since before the 2005 Law 19.995.
