Indiana Grand Casino Changes Name To Horseshoe Indianapolis

On their next visit, casino enthusiasts around the state’s capital may observe some alterations. Indiana Grand Casino has recently rebranded itself as Horseshoe Indianapolis Racing and Casino.

Now that the name change is official, Caesars owns two Horseshoe Casinos in the state. Horseshoe Hammond, located near Chicago, is now a sister casino to Horseshoe Indy.

The property underwent a $32 million expansion, culminating in a name change as the cherry on top.

Horseshoe Indianapolis renovation

The Horseshoe Indianapolis is among the most popular casinos throughout the entire state.

In just the month of January, the property generated over $24 million in adjusted gross revenue. This positioned it as the third most profitable casino in Indiana for that month. However, with the expansion now completed, these figures may potentially increase.

The entire renovation process by Caesars took about 11 months, having broken ground last March.

Horseshoe Indy gained an extra 25,000 square feet from those expansions. This space was allocated for an additional 100 slot machines and 25 table games.

The casino’s most significant achievement, however, is its new World Series of Poker Room. This allows the casino to hold World Series tournaments, as well as some qualifying events for gamblers.

The renovations at the casino also resulted in the addition of 100 new jobs.

Horse racing expansion

The first expansion of Horseshoe Indianapolis might have concluded, but the second round of enhancements on the property are still in progress.

Caesars is investing an extra $7 million in a horse racing expansion at the casino.

Horseshoe Indy, one of only two horse racing casinos in the state, is owned by Caesars. Therefore, it is vital for the company to keep both establishments current.

That $7 million is being allocated for various upgrades on the racing aspect of the property. Concentrating on the racetrack enhances the prominence of horse race betting.

Primarily, the expansion is concentrating on enhancing barn and dorm facilities.

Horseshoe Indy is expanding by adding 100 new stalls and 50 new dorm rooms. The upgraded dormitory, a two-story building, will be situated close to the new barn.

Additionally, the casino is installing winterized sliding doors on both sides of the barn, as well as adding 10 new wash bays and 10 tack rooms.

That fixes a lot of issues for the horse racing aspect of the property.

Improvements for winterizing are crucial in a state such as Indiana. Once everything is complete, the racetrack will have room for 1,200 horses.

Taking everything into account, the alterations are fantastic news for the gamblers in the Indianapolis region. Although Indiana Grand may have a new name, the updated property is expected to provide a superior experience for many years ahead.
