Frequently Asked Questions
Are Ace High casino-style events legal?
Yes. Ace High provides casino-style and game entertainment for fun only. All chips have no cash value and cannot be purchased, exchanged, or redeemed for cash at any time. Our events are designed purely for entertainment, fundraisers, and themed experiences.
What’s included with an Ace High booking?
Every Ace High event includes:
- Delivery, setup, and teardown of all gaming equipment
- Professional-grade tables and game accessories
- Friendly, trained dealers or hosts to teach and run the games
- Coordination with your venue on layout, timing, and space needs
Larger events may include additional staff to ensure everything runs smoothly. Each booking is customized based on your event goals, guest count, and space.
How does an Ace High casino-style event work?
Guests are given a set amount of play chips or vouchers at the start of the event. They use these to participate in our casino-style games throughout the event.
At the end of gameplay, chips can be exchanged for tickets, prize entries, or winner recognition, depending on your event format. Any prizes or awards are client-provided, making this perfect for corporate events. Fundraisers are handled differently based on state law. If a guest is paying to attend the event, guests are not allowed to win prizes associated with the casino tables.
What are your rates?
Our pricing is designed to be affordable and flexible for both corporate events and private parties. Rates vary based on:
- Number and type of games selected
- Event location
- Length of event
- Time of year
- Staffing needs
We’re happy to build a package that fits your budget and vision.
Where does Ace High operate?
Ace High is a mobile event entertainment company serving Minnesota and surrounding states. We regularly work in the Twin Cities metro and surrounding areas and are happy to travel for the right event.
Is tipping the dealers expected?
Tips are appreciated and may be given directly to staff or added to the final invoice and shared among the team.
Is there an age requirement to participate?
No. Guests of all ages are welcome to participate since no real money is involved and all gameplay is strictly for entertainment.
Can I rent tables or equipment only?
We typically do full-service events and prefer to have an Ace High representative onsite to manage gameplay and ensure a great guest experience. If you have a unique request, feel free to reach out and we can discuss options.
Do we have to use Ace High dealers?
Using our dealers is recommended to create the best experience for your guests. However, for fundraisers, proms, and all-night graduation parties, volunteer dealers are often used to help manage costs.
If volunteers are used, Ace High will:
- Provide training before the event
- Supply a casino manager to oversee gameplay
- Support volunteers throughout the event
How does a typical Ace High event night run?
Guests receive an Ace High admission ticket upon arrival. This ticket may be redeemed at any gaming table for a set amount of playing chips and an initial raffle entry, depending on the event format.
Once gameplay begins, guests are free to move between tables and enjoy the various casino-style games throughout the evening. Our dealers assist with gameplay, explain rules, and ensure a smooth, engaging experience for all participants. At the conclusion of the gaming portion of the event, guests may exchange their remaining chips for additional raffle entries, based on the chip-to-ticket conversion established for the event. Raffle tickets are then entered for prize drawings, with prizes supplied by the organization or can be purchased from our customized Ace High prize lists. Prize distribution is handled by the organization or Ace High can supply of Master of Ceremonies if you wish. This format keeps the evening organized, interactive, and fun—while maintaining a clear focus on entertainment and guest engagement.
