After months of anticipation and excitement, the Hard Rock Casino Rockford is finally set to close its temporary location and move to its permanent home in the heart of downtown Rockford. The temporary casino, located at 7801 E. State Street, will shut its doors on October 31st, 2021, as the transition to the new location at the former Clock Tower Resort site begins.
The Hard Rock Casino Rockford made its debut in the temporary location in July 2020, offering a wide range of gaming options, live entertainment, and dining experiences to visitors from near and far. The temporary casino quickly became a popular destination for both locals and tourists alike, as it provided a taste of what the full-fledged Hard Rock Casino experience would be like.
With the closing of the temporary location looming, many patrons are eagerly anticipating the grand opening of the new Hard Rock Casino Rockford site. The new casino is set to feature a state-of-the-art gaming floor with over 1,500 slot machines, 55 table games, and a poker room. In addition, the new location will also house multiple dining options, including a Hard Rock Cafe, a buffet, and several specialty restaurants.
The move to the new location is a significant milestone for the Hard Rock Casino Rockford, as it represents the culmination of years of planning and construction. The casino’s permanent site at the former Clock Tower Resort has been under development for several years, with construction on the $310 million project beginning in 2019. The new casino is expected to not only enhance the local gaming scene but also create hundreds of jobs and generate millions of dollars in revenue for the city of Rockford.
In anticipation of the move, the Hard Rock Casino Rockford has announced a series of farewell events at the temporary location. These events will give patrons one last chance to enjoy the games, entertainment, and dining options that have made the temporary casino a favorite among visitors. The casino has also announced that all rewards points earned at the temporary location will be transferred to the new site, ensuring that loyal customers will not lose any of their hard-earned perks.
As the countdown to the closing of the temporary location begins, excitement is building for the grand opening of the new Hard Rock Casino Rockford site.
