Caesars Virginia Casino Resort Set to Open Later This Year

 

The 587,000-square-foot Caesars Virginia casino resort is set to open December 12 in Danville, Virginia, bringing more than 90,000 square feet of gaming space, 320 hotel rooms and 50,000 square feet of meeting space to the Southside Virginia region.  

The resort will feature 1,500 new slot machines, 79 live-action table games, 48 electronic table games, a WSOP poker room and Caesars Sportsbook.

Caesars Virginia will also be home to a 320-room hotel tower that will feature a 2,500-seat live entertainment venue, full-service spa, pool and a wide variety of dining options including the recently announced Ramsay’s Kitchen from multi-Michelin-starred chef and television personality Gordon Ramsay and the 500 Block Food Hall from local developer Rick Barker and restaurateur Steve Parry.  

“We have worked diligently on creating a world-class resort that will offer all the luxurious and modern amenities expected from Caesars that will also serve as an economic driver for Danville and the surrounding region through employment and tourism,” said Barron Fuller, regional president for Caesars Entertainment. “We’re so proud of Caesars Virginia and look forward to welcoming guests on December 12.”

Caesars Virginia's opening follows Danville Casino, the temporary facility that opened in May 2023, which currently employs over 400 people and is set to hire an additional 1,200 employees by the time the property fully opens in December. Since the facility’s initial opening, it has paid more than $66 million to the City of Danville and The Commonwealth in gaming taxes.
