Caesars Virginia is set to open its doors on December 12, 2024, at 12 p.m., a significant milestone that promises to invigorate Southern Virginia’s hospitality and gaming industries. The expansive 587,000-square-foot casino resort will feature more than 90,000 square feet dedicated to gaming, offering nearly 1,500 state-of-the-art slot machines, 79 live table games, 48 electronic tables, a World Series of Poker (WSOP™) room, and a Caesars Sportsbook. This grand opening is poised to captivate both locals and visitors, contributing to the vibrant atmosphere of Danville and providing an unparalleled gaming experience.

Chris Albrecht, the senior vice president and general manager of the resort, emphasized their commitment to maintaining high standards of service through local training programs and ongoing community engagements.
