Rio Hotel & Casino unveils upgraded William Hill-powered sportsbook

Enhanced sportsbook features new LED displays, VIP lounge areas, upgraded seating and expanded bar-top gaming options for Las Vegas guests

Rio Hotel & Casino has opened its newly renovated race and sportsbook, powered by Caesars Entertainment-owned William Hill US.

The renovated space has been designed to bring guests closer to the action and features new screens, an upgraded sound system, club-level seating and a fully renovated adjacent bar.

The 3,400-square-foot sportsbook offers expanded wagering options through 12 William Hill self-service wagering kiosks and eight racing carrels with individually controlled screens.

William Hill has powered the retail sportsbook at the Rio Hotel & Casino since the end of 2020.

"The reopening of our renovated sportsbook by William Hill marks another exciting milestone in the ongoing evolution of Rio," said Rod Turlan, president of Rio Hotel & Casino. "We set out to create a modern, high-energy environment where fans can enjoy cutting-edge viewing technology, elevated comfort and exceptional service.

"From the dynamic LED displays and dedicated VIP lounge areas to the completely renovated bar, every detail was intentionally designed to deliver an unforgettable experience for our guests."

Eric Hession, president of Caesars Digital, commented: "William Hill remains an important part of our business in Nevada, and we're proud to work with our partners at Rio on this renovated race and sportsbook. There's nothing like spending an afternoon at a great race and sportsbook, whether you're following the races or watching the games.

"This space stays true to what fans expect from William Hill while giving them a more modern, comfortable setting to enjoy both."

William Hill US, part of Caesars Entertainment's sports wagering portfolio, is Nevada's largest sportsbook operator, serving sports fans through more than 110 race and sportsbook locations statewide and the William Hill Nevada mobile app.

William Hill is an official sports betting partner of the Las Vegas Raiders and Vegas Golden Knights.
