The Nevada Gaming Commission has approved plans submitted by FanDuel Group and Boyd Gaming to open a FanDuel Sportsbook location at the Fremont Hotel & Casino in early 2023. Nevada will join the sixteen other states that FanDuel Sportsbook calls home.
Located near Fremont Casino’s Third St entrance, by the Filament Bar, the FanDuel Sportsbook location will occupy a 2,300 square-foot space and will serve as an exciting place to watch and bet on sporting events. The location will be open year round and will feature, according to a recent press release, “four betting windows, two LED video walls (16’x9’), a 40-foot bar, 16 tables, two drink rails, seating for 76 customers, 14 odds/promo screens and seven IGT PlaySports self-service betting kiosks.”
The news comes during the process of Boyd Gaming’s $50 million expansion of the casino, upgrading the Fremont’s gaming and food & drink facilities. It is expected to be complete early next year. It is situated near the legendary Fremont Street Experience.
FanDuel is partnering and co-branding with Boyd Gaming on the location. Boyd will hold the sportsbook license and will operate and manage sportsbook. With the upgrade of the Fremont and addition of the Fanduel Sportsbook, Downtown Las Vegas looks to be getting even more exciting!
