Tumbling Dice

Get ready to (rock ‘n’) roll! After months of renovations, including new games, new murals, and the installation of decades-worth of music memorabilia, Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati officially opens to the public on Friday, Oct. 29.

On Oct. 29 at 11 a.m., Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati will re-open as the iconic brand with their famous Guitar Smash led by celebrities and members of the Seminole Tribe of Florida as well as Hard Rock Casino executives. 

Following the Guitar Smash, baseball legend Pete Rose will place the first bet at Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati and autograph the official Hard Rock Casino guitar specially made for the casino’s memorabilia collection.

The first live performance at the Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati will be by Earth, Wind & Fire, the GRAMMY® Award-winning R&B band that spans decades of top hits from “Shining Star," "Sing a Song," “September” and "After the Love Has Gone."

“We know our Grand Opening will be a big hit with the Hit King Pete Rose and Earth, Wind & Fire here to celebrate with our guests,” said George Goldhoff, president of Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati. “The Hard Rock Casino brand is globally recognized as a leader in gaming and entertainment. We know our guests will be delighted with our new restaurant, retail, and gaming experiences.”

Over the last few months, Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati has introduced new restaurant and retail experiences to guests. On Oct. 25, Council Oak Steaks & Seafood opened. In July, the Hard Rock Cafe Cincinnati opened, and in April, the Rock Shop® opened.
