BetMGM and Gila River Casino open first sportsbook in Arizona
The opening at Vee Quiva is also Phoenix’s first in-casino sportsbook.
US.- BetMGM and Gila River Hotels & Casinos have announced the opening of the BetMGM Sportsbook at Vee Quiva. It’s the first BetMGM retail sportsbook in Arizona and Phoenix’s first in-casino sportsbook.
The BetMGM Sportsbook at Vee Quiva has 25 large screen displays, a massive media wall, and seating for more than 100 guests, where players can watch US and international sports. It also features 20 betting kiosks.
In August, BetMGM announced that it had been approved for a sports betting licence in Arizona. The brand partnered with the Arizona Cardinals and Gila River Casinos.
BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt said: “It’s great to see our partnership with Gila River come to life in Arizona. The BetMGM Sportsbook at Vee Quiva will be a true destination for sports fans and we look forward to opening additional venues at Wild Horse Pass and Lone Butte.
“These retail sportsbooks complement our existing mobile platform in Arizona and further cement our goal of providing BetMGM customers with a world-class experience.”
Kenneth Manuel, CEO of Gila River Hotels & Casinos, added: “The new sportsbooks align perfectly with Gila River’s sports-centric brand. As Arizona’s Official Sports Headquarters, we take pride in bringing unique sports experiences to our valued guests.
“We’re excited to partner with BetMGM to deliver a diverse, engaging selection of betting options, no matter if you’re a huge sports fan or just want to check out the fun.”
