Derby City Gaming & Hotel

Derby City Gaming is a premier entertainment destination owned by Churchill Downs Incorporated (NASDAQ: CHDN). Since opening its original facility in September 2018, Derby City Gaming has become a leading force in Kentucky's gaming industry. Located in Louisville, Kentucky, our flagship property on Poplar Level Road began with a $60 million state-of-the-art Historical Racing Machine (HRM) facility, offering over 1300 games, casual dining areas, a center bar, a simulcast wagering area, and a player’s club reward center. Over the years, Derby City Gaming has grown into one of Kentucky's top gaming destinations. Our expanded gaming floor, which opened in late 2022, features additional games and entertainment options, including a high-limit gaming area, a chophouse & bourbon bar, and a sports & entertainment bar. The expansion also included the addition of a brand-new 5-story, 123-room hotel, which opened in mid-2023, elevating Louisville's hospitality and entertainment landscape. With over 1,000 cutting-edge games and continued growth, Derby City Gaming is poised to be the premier gaming property in Kentucky, blending top-tier gaming with the state's celebrated horse racing heritage. In addition to our flagship location, Derby City Gaming Downtown (DCGDT) opened in 2023 in the heart of Downtown Louisville. This brand-new, exciting property nearly boasts 500 HRMs, 3 unique bar concepts, and an Official Kentucky Derby gift shop, making it a must-visit for both locals and tourists alike. As we continue to grow, Derby City Gaming remains committed to providing an exceptional gaming and entertainment experience, while also contributing to the local economy. With the creation of over 400 new jobs since opening, including both construction and full- and part-time positions, we’re proud to support the community’s economic development and ensure Kentucky remains a leader in the entertainment industry.
