Las Vegas’s Circa Resort & Casino celebrates halfway milestone ahead of 2020 opening

LAS VEGAS — The highly anticipated Circa Resort & Casino in Las Vegas is on track for a December 2020 opening, reaching the halfway mark in its 22-month construction.

As the first ground-up gaming resort in Downtown Las Vegas since 1980, the 777-room, 1.25 million-square-foot property will open its doors on the iconic Fremont Street Experience. It first broke ground on Feb. 19, 2019, and upon completion it will stand as the tallest structure north of the Las Vegas Strip.

“Reaching this milestone for Circa would not be possible without our incredible partners and construction team,” said CEO and developer Derek Stevens. “I’m proud to deliver something completely new to the Las Vegas experience and can’t wait to open our doors a year from now for everyone to enjoy it.”

Circa’s offerings will include the following:

• World’s largest sportsbook: Operated by Stevens’ sports betting venture, Circa Sports, the resort’s centrepiece will boast a 78-million-pixel high-definition screen, the largest sportsbook screen in history.
