The new expansion will allow for long-term growth of both casino properties. Construction will begin first at Comanche Red River Hotel Casino with a new event center that expands the gaming floor, adds non-gaming amenities and creates new space to host concerts, conferences and community events. 

“This capital improvement marks a strategic milestone for Comanche Nation Entertainment,” said Steven Doyle, CNE CEO. “It gives us room to grow in a smart and sustainable way – creating more value for our guests, our team members and most importantly, Comanche Nation.” 

The Comanche Red River Hotel Casino expansion includes approximately 150 additional slot machines, 15 table games, new bar and food service areas and non-gaming attractions including an arcade and virtual golf suites. The event center will offer flexible seating for 500 to 750 guests and support cross-promotional programming designed to drive longer stays and higher guest engagement. 

“Expanding our hotel room capacity and building an event center creates a stronger foundation for long-term profitability,” said Doyle. “It helps us capture more overnight visitors, extend play time on the casino floor and bring in new audiences for live events and entertainment.” 

While Comanche Red River Hotel Casino is the first phase, the broader development plan includes future expansions to Comanche Nation Casino and other long-range enhancements across both sites. Comanche Nation Entertainment anticipates a mix of hospitality, gaming and entertainment uses – all designed to reinforce the company’s commitment to economic growth and cultural preservation. 

“This expansion is more than a development plan,” said Doyle. “It’s a symbol of progress, resilience and collective effort. We’re investing in a future where the Comanche people thrive.” 

The project is expected to create a wide range of local jobs and support increased tourism and small business activity in the region. Construction on the Comanche Red River Hotel Casino event center is scheduled to begin later this year.
