01 · The brand
A Mainstreet RTG casino, twice over
Old Havana launched in 2012 on RealTime Gaming software, later joined by Visionary iGaming and the SpinLogic line, as a US-facing casino in the Mainstreet group. That group is a familiar one to anyone tracking American-facing RTG rooms: it also runs Sun Palace and Vegas Casino Online, and it stood behind High Country, whose own closure is recorded here. Where the casino was licensed has always been told several ways – some listings place it in Panama, while the namesake domains that survive it cite a Curacao registration numbered 8048/JAZ – but its market was plain enough: a mid-tier RTG brand aimed at players in the United States.
02 · The two closures
Closed in 2014, back in 2015, gone in 2025
The first ending came in May 2014, and it was an orderly one: Mainstreet moved Old Havana players across to its sister casino Sun Palace rather than leaving them stranded. Eighteen months later the brand returned, relaunching in December 2015, and it ran on for most of a decade before Mainstreet retired it a second time in 2025. Closure directories recorded it shut on 11 August 2025, with the group setting the retirement effective around 1 September 2025. The funds reading follows the pattern: 2014 was a migration inside a still-active group, not a disappearance, and the 2025 wind-down was run by an operator that continues to trade Sun Palace and Vegas Casino Online, which points to an orderly close rather than a vanishing. What is missing is a public reconciliation of the 2025 balances, so full settlement cannot be independently confirmed. If you held money at the second close, contact the group sister brands and keep your account records.
03 · The namesakes
The namesakes still flying the flag
Old Havana did not disappear cleanly from the web. Several domains carrying the name keep serving current-looking content: oldhavanacasino.eu presents an active-looking site, while oldhavanacasino.org points at players in New Zealand and oldhavanacasino.com.de at German ones, both citing that Curacao registration, 8048/JAZ. Whether these are group-run continuations or third parties leaning on a known name is not something the outside view settles. The safe assumption is the cautious one: treat any site presenting Old Havana as open in 2026 as a brand to verify – the operating company, and a current licence tied to the actual domain – rather than the Mainstreet original carried on unbroken. Old Havana sits among the American-facing brands in the register of US-facing offshore closures on this site.
04 · The receipts
How we verified this record
Every claim on this page is graded by how firmly the record supports it. “Confirmed” means more than one independent source agrees, or we saw it ourselves. “Observed” means we checked it directly on the date shown. “Unconfirmed” means it rests on reports we could not independently prove.
05 · The questions
Old Havana – the questions still open
Q. Is Old Havana casino closed?
Yes. After closing once in 2014 and reopening in 2015, Mainstreet retired Old Havana again in 2025, with a closure recorded on 11 August 2025 and an effective date around 1 September 2025.
Q. What happened when Old Havana first closed in 2014?
Players were moved to sister casino Sun Palace within the Mainstreet group, so the first closure was a migration rather than a stranding. The brand later relaunched in December 2015.
Q. Is Old Havana related to other casinos?
Yes. It was a Mainstreet group brand alongside Sun Palace and Vegas Casino Online, and a sibling of High Country, which is recorded separately on this site.
Q. There is an Old Havana site that looks live – is it the same casino?
Not necessarily. Namesake domains such as oldhavanacasino.eu, oldhavanacasino.org and oldhavanacasino.com.de still serve current-looking content, some citing a Curacao registration 8048/JAZ. Check the operating company and a current, domain-linked licence before depositing.
