On June 2, Casino Niagara embarked on the next phase of an exciting $7 million investment that will deliver an elevated gaming and entertainment experience for all visitors. The current phase of the project focuses on a transformation of the second level into Niagara’s top destination for sports fans, food enthusiasts, entertainment seekers and loyal visitors. Completion is scheduled for the fall of this year.

Aligning with Casino Niagara’s promise to deliver “just plain more fun,” the project includes a $3.5 million spend on infrastructure and redesign for a fresh entertainment experience that greets visitors as they walk through the doors. An additional $3.5 million is being invested in technology and gaming, to offer guests the next generation of gaming. This new investment is in addition to recently completed projects on the Market Buffet, Gaming Floor, Players Advantage Club booth, new slot products and renovations to the Conservatory.

The investment in renovations and improvements is part of Casino Niagara’s plan to attract both loyal and new guests and keep business strong.“We are tremendously proud of Casino Niagara’s 20-year legacy in Niagara Falls and our continued promise to be a premier gaming destination,” said Richard Taylor, President, Niagara Casinos. “This investment demonstrates a commitment to always giving our visitors access to the best in entertainment, dining and gaming.”

The $7 million project will deliver new experiences for visitors. Highlights on what guests can look forward to include:

• Niagara’s largest sports bar experience. From season openers to the playoffs, sports fans will always have the best seat in the house in the newly designed sports bar. The 275-seat venue located on the second level will showcase contemporary design, a 123-inch HD video screen, multiple new HDTVs and a winning menu.
• New gaming technology that includes 250 slots and a new interactive gaming zone with Golden Tees, PlayStation 4 and Xbox consoles and immersive skill-based gaming.
• The opening of a luxurious new Poker Room. The redesigned space includes more than 20 gaming tables and a new-elevated lounge experience.

The project will result in the temporary closure of level two beginning Monday, June 5.  During this time, Casino Niagara will remain open and will continue to offer exciting promotions, live music, gaming and weekly entertainment.
