"At the time, they said the introductory casino was planned to open in Spring 2026 and they described the project to be in full swing. However, the main casino complex was said to be opening in 2027, with this being about 2 million square feet. The casino will include 4,300 slot machines, 100 table games, 11 dining outlets, a players lounge, 11 bars, and a 2,700-space parking garage built under the casino complex, and 800 surface parking spaces."
"Harris starts by sharing the new introductions and improvements before noting that, unlike South Carolina, "believe it or not, we never applied to be state-recognized in North Carolina." He continued to say they already have all the paperwork turned in and have done their due diligence, including giving the state everything they need. With this comes the opening of the tribe's first satellite government office in North Carolina."
Chief Brian Harris announced tribal plans including opening the Catawba Nation's first satellite government office in North Carolina to serve citizens there. The tribe reports all necessary paperwork has been submitted and due diligence completed with state authorities. Legislative initiatives this year will include bills for North Carolina and South Carolina; one South Carolina bill seeks preferential treatment for the tribe against other casinos, with federal lawsuits possible if not approved. An 80,000-square-foot introductory casino is scheduled to open in February or March, while the $1 billion Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort project plans a 2 million-square-foot main complex opening in 2027 with extensive amenities.
