ECA CEO Late Lunch 2026 - Registration

A New Tradition in Barcelona continued

Dear Esteemed Invitee,

We are pleased to invite you to the 2nd ECA CEO Late Lunch, a fresh evolution of our long-standing CEO Dinner. This year’s gathering not only reflects the changing landscape of the gambling industry but also offers a special moment to celebrate the second edition of ICE in its new home, Barcelona.

Venue: Altamar Restaurant

We have carefully selected a venue that embodies the spirit of Barcelona and Spain, blending tradition with innovation - much like the casinos operated by ECA members.

The ECA CEO Late Lunch will be held at the prestigious Altamar Restaurant in Barcelona.

About Altamar Restaurant

We have chosen to return to the same venue as last year—this time with a refreshed menu—because we believe it perfectly captures what this event stands for and represents a true Barcelona landmark.

The ECA CEO Late Lunch will once again take place at the prestigious Altamar Restaurant, a setting that continues to embody the spirit of the city by uniting tradition and innovation.

The Cable Car Tower

The Torre de San Sebastián is one of the towers of the Port Vell Aerial Tramway, a historic cable car that has been operating since 1931. At 78 metres high, it offers unparalleled views of the city, port, and the Mediterranean Sea. The journey to the restaurant itself is an experience as guests ascend in the cable car, taking in the stunning postcard views of Barcelona.
