Here Is When The Hard Rock Rockford Permanent Casino Will Open

Customers can anticipate the everlasting casino to welcome both bettors and relaxed patrons in the fall of 2023, according to Hard Rock Casino Rockford.

This is the most dependable timetable that Hard Rock has provided to date.

Until the permanent game is built and prepared for launch, the Opening Act serves as a temporary game file occupying 37,000 square feet.

The Opening Act offers over 625 games, including electrical table games, and the choice of dining at either the Midway Bar or Rock River Bar and Grill.

The temporary casino reported total adjusted gross receipts exceeding $11.7 million from January to February 2022, according to the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB). Among the 11 Illinois casinos, it ranked 10th.

The total estimated cost for the construction of the casino is $310 million.

Bettors will be welcomed by 65,000 square feet of outdoor entertainment options. Judging by flat images, it will be the largest game in Illinois.

This encompasses gaming tables and slot machines for bettors. The exact count of casinos and tables remains unknown.

The game features a Hard Rock Cafe, along with various unnamed bars and restaurants for casual visitors to discover.

The game space will also accommodate Hard Rock Live, a music and entertainment facility with 1,600 seats.

The hotel area has been a topic of discussion, but few specific details have been confirmed. It’s expected that if it does become available, it will open after the game’s launch in Fall 2023.

Hard Rock Rockford, located at 7801 State Street just off the I-90 passing slope, will be easily accessible.

Previously, the Clock Tower Resort, once a thriving revenue source for Rockford, had occupied a certain plot of land. However, following its demolition in 2018 due to a downturn in business, the lot on which it stood has remained vacant.

Hard Rock andrsquo’s dedication to Rockford

As part of the permanent casino’s license granted by the IGB, Hard Rock is obligated to return to the city of Rockford.

The $7 million annual gaming revenue from Hard Rock will be allocated towards Rockford’s resurgence. The construction of the casino, once initiated, will create 1,000 temporary and 1,200 permanent jobs in the area.

Hard Rock Casino Rockford’s Vice President of Finance, Wendy Kasche, stated:

“In my view, our motto ‘Love all, serve all’ and active participation in the community have been absolutely wonderful and exceptional. We are all excitedly awaiting the inauguration of our permanent service due to the great partnerships and strong relationships we’ve established.”

A well-known figure from the Rockford area has recently partnered with Hard Rock.

Earlier this year, Hard Rock partnered with the Rockford IceHogs to enhance the viewing experience at IceHogs home games at the BMO Harris Bank Center.

The partnership gave birth to The Stage, a 56-seat club set featuring private, luxurious seats, tabletop bars, and an exclusive buffet.
