Circa Sports activities is expanding its Las Vegas footprint, assuming operation of the race and sportsbook at the Silverton Casino Lodge in suburban Las Vegas on Jan. one, 2024.
The race and sportsbook at Silverton, which is considered a Las Vegas locals casino, is at present operated by Caesars Entertainment’s William Hill. Circa co-founder and CEO Derek Stevens discussed the task at a meeting with the Nevada Gaming Manage Board (NGCB) earlier this week.
It is a task we’ve worked on with the Silverton for quite a even though,” Stevens advised regulators. “This will be one more satellite sportsbook within the state. The sportsbook would include a substantial renovation of the home and be an investment on our component. We strategy on employing all of the men and women and they’ll be Circa Sports activities staff.”
Circa is preparing to open a temporary sportsbook at Silverton on Jan. one, just in time for that day’s notoriously massive slate of university football bowl games and in advance of the Super Bowl. The remodeled everlasting sportsbook is expected to be open prior to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.

Circa Continues Nevada Expansion
In Nevada, Circa sportsbooks are located at its namesake venue and at the D and Golden Gate casinos, all in downtown Las Vegas, as properly as at the Tuscany Suites & Casino and the Pass Casino in Henderson. The operator entered Northern Nevada last yr through a partnership with the Legends Bay Casino in Sparks.
The Silverton, which is owned by Ed Roski Jr., joins that listing. While Circa doesn’t have as many retail sportsbooks in its house state as does Caesars/William Hill or MGM Resorts International, the operator is well-known with bettors of all stripes.
In addition to its status as the sportsbook that embraces sharp bettors, Circa has other rewards in terms of incorporating industry share in Nevada. For example, its yearly NFL contests, Circa Million and Circa Survivor, entice thousands of participants. To indicator up, participants have to visit a land-based mostly Circa sportsbook.
As of late July, Circa ranked as the third-biggest Nevada sportsbook by industry share, trailing only Caesars/William Hill and MGM.
Silverton Sensible Growth Move by Circa Sports
Circa’s move to takeover sportsbook operations at Silverton jibes with the sportsbook conservative approach to expansion. Unlike some rivals that have rushed to enter virtually every state that permits sports activities betting, Circa has taken a a lot more restrained strategy, opting to emphasis on Nevada and states with favorable regulatory and tax environments.
Looking ahead, there are many casinos in Nevada, such as in Las Vegas and Reno/Lake Tahoe, that have sportsbook operations that could conceivably be farmed out to Circa.
Beyond its residence state, Circa Sports gives mobile sports wagering in Colorado, Illinois, Iowa and Kentucky.
