BRISTOL, Va., June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hard Rock International would like to clarify recent news reports regarding the opening timeline of our permanent facility at the Bristol Casino in Virginia. The property will have its grand opening late 2024 this year as planned; there has been no delay in our plans.
From the outset, it was our intention to open key elements of the facility later in the year. However, to ensure a comprehensive and memorable debut, instead of staggering the opening of key amenities, we have decided to do a “Grand Opening” with all elements of the project including Hard Rock Live, an array of diverse dining options and our signature Hard Rock Hotel all at once. We understand the significance of first impressions and are committed to making a spectacular entrance into the Bristol community. We appreciate the community’s enthusiasm and patience as we finalize preparations for what promises to be a landmark opening later this year.
Please stay tuned for further exciting announcements and details as we approach the grand opening.
