Maryland voters approved a ballot initiative to legalize sports betting in 2020. Live! Casino already has a partnership in place with FanDuel and, pending final approval, the new venue will have multiple options to place bets, including self-service kiosks and retail windows.
It also has two main bars, VIP lounges, tiered sports viewing lounge chairs, casino games that include blackjack and roulette, and interactive social games, including mini-bowling and oversized foosball. The casino says guests will be able to watch at least 10 games at a time.
The nearly 14,000 square foot, 212-seat venue features a state-of-the-art audio/visual system with more than 100 linear feet of LED screens, including a 47-foot wide main screen. The Sports & Social at Live! Casino is a $12 million addition that replaces its former Center Stage performance venue in the center of its casino floor. A second location will open at the Pike & Rose development in Bethesda this fall. It is the first Sports & Social to open in Maryland. Live! Casino and Hotel’s newest addition, Sports & Social, will open April 29, adding more gaming, a plethora of video screens for sports fans to watch games and, once Maryland lawmakers finalize it, legalized sports betting.
