🎉 Case Study: How Stay Entertained Turns Brisbane’s Gatsby Boat Party Into a Floating Casino Experience

People playing Blackjack on the great Gatsby boat party Brisbane

âš“ Champagne, Jazz, and Roulette on the Brisbane River

Every six weeks, 300 to 500 sharply dressed guests step aboard a $10 million luxury boat for the Great Gatsby Boat Party, one of Brisbane’s most iconic ticketed events. With 1920s music, swing dancers, signature cocktails, and sweeping views of the city skyline, it’s already a spectacle.

But the real showstopper?
A high energy, fully themed casino night on water, powered by Stay Entertained.

🎰 The Experience

As guests sip champagne and swing to live jazz, they step into an immersive world of:

  • Blackjack & Roulette tables
  • Custom fun money
  • Professional casino croupiers
  • 360° photo booth experiences from sister brand Stay Captured

We help transform the Upper deck of the boat into a 1920s Monte Carlo style casino, complete with smooth talking dealers, elegant tables, and a vibe that keeps guests coming back for more.

🎯 The Results (Every. Single. Time.)

  • 300–500 attendees
  • 🎟️ $150 avg ticket price
  • One entire float tray of chips used every event far more than any other party we attend
  • Record game volume, our most played tables month after month
  • Hundreds of guests cycle through the 360 photo booth, tagging and sharing across socials
  • 👏 Organisers consistently call us the fastest and most professional vendor on the boat

đź”§ Behind the Scenes: The Hustle No One Sees

Getting our gear on and off the boat is no easy feat, long docks and tight timing make logistics a serious challenge.

But we’ve refined the process to a science:

  • Two trips total
  • Fast setup and teardown
  • Zero disruption to the flow of the event

That’s why we’ve become the trusted casino partner of this high profile event we deliver, every time.

đź’¬ What the Organisers Say

“The Stay Entertained crew are unmatched. The tables look amazing, the staff are brilliant, and they always handle big crowds without a hitch. Honestly, we wish all our vendors were this smooth.”

Final Word

From first shuffle to last chip, the Gatsby Boat Party proves how powerful a mobile casino experience can be even on water.

If you’re planning a premium event in Brisbane (or anywhere in SE QLD), we bring the fun, fast.
Because when it comes to unforgettable nights, we don’t miss a beat, or a boat.
