Dania Casino & Jai Alai in Broward County, Florida will be closing Oct. 15 for renovations expected to last at least one year, leaving roughly 300 people out of a job. The property, formerly known as Dania Jai Alai, is hoping that a $50 million refurbishment will keep the racino competitive in the increasingly congested South Florida gambling market.
The casino, which offers slot machines and a 12-table poker room, has fallen behind nearby state parimutuel facilities Mardi Gras Casino and Gulfstream Park in terms of slot revenue and is miles behind the Seminole Hard Rock and Seminole Classic Casinos, which can offer a wider range of gaming options.
When I checked again that day, almost all of December was greyed out and thankfully there were a few days from 16-20 that still had availability. Harry potter studio tour time slots.
While Florida’s eight racinos average $176 in revenue per day from each machine, Dania Casino is only taking in $65.
Featuring 750 slot machines, a 21 table card room, nationally known recording artists and comedians, simulcast lounge and sports bar, multiple dining options and live Jai-Alai, the brand new Casino @ Dania Beach offers a gaming and entertainment experience like no other in a friendly and fun environment!
