(California).- Opened in just 2019, the Sacramento-area’s newest casino is already a regional landmark. And Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Wheatland is already planning to get bigger.
This month, the casino announced the construction of a new concert and events center with seating for more than 2,500 people. The casino is also adding a large gas station, convenience store and smoke shop on the property.
The demand certainly seems to be there for the expansion. The Hard Rock served 2 million patrons in the last year and employed hundreds in the region. At the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hard Rock donated 2,000 units of Personal Protective Equipment to local hospitals and $100,000 of perishable foods to food-insecure Sacramentans.
Hard Rock hopes to coalesce these axes within its events center and service center. Both projects represent a $65 million investment and will generate upwards of 450 jobs, 250 in construction and 200 for full- and part-time staff. Hard Rock expects the endeavors to bring further publicity and revenue to the Sacramento area.
“We have a 20-year vision here with multiple phases,” President Mark Birtha said. “The only reason we’re able to do this expansion phase is because our employees worked so hard the last year and have done a great job bringing authentic experiences that our guests love.”
