Golden Nugget Biloxi and DraftKings Team Up to Revolutionize Sports Betting in Mississippi

Golden Nugget Casino Biloxi has embarked on a groundbreaking partnership with DraftKings, with plans to revamp their existing sportsbook into a state-of-the-art retail space, scheduled to open its doors in January 2024. This strategic move is poised to reshape the landscape of sports entertainment in Mississippi.

The Golden Nugget Casino Biloxi and DraftKings collaboration promises an unmatched sports betting encounter. Chett Harrison, the general manager of Golden Nugget Casino Biloxi, expressed his excitement about the project, emphasizing the inclusion of the DraftKings Sportsbook at their venue. The upcoming sportsbook will occupy half of the former buffet space while the other half will remain unused, serving as overflow meeting space when necessary.

The revamped sportsbook will feature a sleek design, highlighted by three video walls equipped with cutting-edge LED screens. The viewing area will offer both VIP and stadium seating, creating an ambiance of luxury for patrons. With a $1 million investment, the venue will house approximately 40 comfortable lounge chairs, making it an ideal spot for enjoying playoff games and the Super Bowl.

DraftKings' influence on the new sportsbook is unmistakable, as it seamlessly integrates technology and features from the DraftKings Sportsbook app. Customers can indulge in the convenience of Same Game Parlays, prop bets, and various in-play betting options.

While the new sportsbook is under construction, the current sportsbook and kiosks, including those at Michael Patrick’s Sports Bar & Grill, continue to operate using DraftKings technology. Ensuring a safe and responsible gaming experience remains a top priority, with DraftKings actively engaging in industry associations like the American Gaming Association (AGA) and the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG).

The launch of the DraftKings Sportsbook at Golden Nugget Casino Biloxi is poised to set a new benchmark for sports betting in Mississippi. Patrons can anticipate a blend of cutting-edge technology, luxury amenities, and an exhilarating gaming experience that promises to be unmatched in the region.
