Rivers Casino Portsmouth opens Monday with high-stakes gaming and live entertainment
Rivers Casino Portsmouth is set to open its doors on Monday at 10 AM. The $340 million venue, operated by Rush Street Gaming, hosted a charity event on Thursday night ahead of its official launch. City officials and casino management have highlighted the project’s economic and community benefits. The casino spans a large gaming floor with 1,448 slot machines and 57 tables for various games. A dedicated poker room features 24 individual tables, while a high-stakes area caters to serious gamblers. For sports fans, the BetRivers Sportsbook includes a 750-foot monitor capable of showing 30 games simultaneously, along with 27 betting kiosks.
Security has been a key focus, with upgraded systems and measures in place to ensure visitor safety. Beyond gaming, the venue offers dining options such as Milan Asian Cuisine, Slice Pizzeria, and Starbucks. The Sound Bar, a live music venue, can accommodate over 120 guests and will host performances every weekend.
Portsmouth Mayor Shannon Glover has outlined plans for the casino’s tax revenue, which is projected to reach $16.3 million over the first four years. Funds will support improvements to local schools, police and fire services, and infrastructure projects. The casino’s opening marks a significant investment in the city, with long-term financial benefits expected. Residents and visitors will have access to gaming, dining, and entertainment, while the city prepares to allocate tax revenue to public services and development.
