Bristol Casino – Future Home of Hard Rock – has, to no one’s surprise, been tremendously successful since opening its doors in July of 2022. Locals and visitors alike have flocked to the hotspot – and the crowds only continue to grow.

 You could say this region hit the jackpot when Virginia chose to make Bristol the home of the state’s first full-service casino.

 The temporary casino, located in the old Bristol Mall off Gate City Highway, is a gorgeous venue that includes more than 870 slot machines, 21 tables, and a sportsbook. So, if you want to try your luck at slots, Blackjack, Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, Mississippi Stud, Pai-Gow, Three-Card Poker, or Ultimate Texas Holdem, the Bristol Casino is the place for you! And you can do it any time you want as the casino is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

And you won’t have to worry about going hungry when you visit the casino. It houses two restaurants, Mr. Lucky’s, which features seafood, steaks, pasta dishes, and house-made soups, and uses locally-sourced ingredients, and Brick’d, a chef-led pizzeria with a quick-service Italian menu that offers grab-and-go items.

The Bristol Bar is also a popular stop. It is located just across from the Sportsbook area and features live entertainment, ice-cold beer, and cocktails.

 Guests can pick up their favorite Hard Rock signature merchandise from the Rock Shop, where you can buy the iconic Hard Rock t-shirts and a variety of other apparel and souvenirs.

The larger anxiously awaited Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Bristol, expected to open in the summer of 2024 and projected to attract over four million visitors annually, is expected to have something for everyone. The destination resort will feature two hotel towers, a pool, a 3,200-seat Hard Rock Live music venue, wedding and convention facilities, top-notch retailers, and a 20,000-capacity outdoor entertainment venue with restaurants, shops, and more!

In the meantime, if you’re feeling lucky – or just want to check out the region’s newest attraction – we’re betting you can’t go wrong with trip to the Bristol Casino!
