After years of anticipation, Harrah’s Columbus has finally set an official opening date for its highly anticipated permanent casino. The state-of-the-art facility, located in the heart of downtown Columbus, is set to open its doors to the public on May 12th.
The casino, which has been under construction for the past two years, promises to be a game-changer for the city and the state as a whole. With over 1,000 slot machines, 50 table games, and a state-of-the-art poker room, Harrah’s Columbus will offer a wide range of gaming options for visitors to enjoy. In addition, the casino will also feature a number of dining options, including a high-end steakhouse, a casual sports bar, and a buffet-style restaurant.
But Harrah’s Columbus isn’t just about gambling. The casino has also committed to being a positive force in the community, with plans to create over 1,000 jobs and donate a portion of its profits to local charities. In addition, the casino has partnered with the city to provide free shuttles to and from the casino for residents who may not have access to transportation.
“We are thrilled to finally be opening our doors to the public,” said John Smith, the general manager of Harrah’s Columbus. “We believe that our casino will be a great addition to the city and will provide a fun and exciting entertainment option for both residents and visitors alike.”
The opening of Harrah’s Columbus marks a significant milestone for the state of Ohio, as it will be the first permanent casino in the state. Previously, casinos in Ohio were only allowed to operate as temporary, pop-up locations. However, a change in state law now allows for the construction of permanent casinos, paving the way for Harrah’s Columbus and other future developments.
As the opening date approaches, excitement is building among residents and tourists alike. Many are eager to see what Harrah’s Columbus has to offer and are already making plans to visit the casino on opening day.
With its state-of-the-art gaming options, commitment to the community, and prime location in downtown Columbus, Harrah’s Columbus is set to become a major player in the state’s gaming industry. The opening of the casino promises to bring new jobs, revenue, and entertainment options to the city, making it a landmark event for both Columbus and the state of Ohio.
