Caesars has said the Danville location will create “more than a thousand good-paying jobs.” The official renderings of the Caesars Virginia location, a $500 million resort, include 500 hotel rooms, a modern casino floor, restaurant, and 40,000 square feet of meeting and convention space. “Currently, we are laser focused on construction and look forward to officially announcing the general contractor soon,” said Robert Jarrett, director of public relations for Caesars Entertainment. Hiring is less imminent for the Caesars Entertainment Casino coming to Danville, which is not expected to open until sometime in 2023. “However, we will try to hire local whenever possible,” she said. Of those relocating, Evangelista said the casino expects some to include employees who grew up in the area and are now moving back to pursue a career with Hard Rock. “This is primarily because there are no casinos currently operating in Virginia.”

“We also are recruiting and hiring team members with prior dealer experience, and those individuals typically relocate from outside the region,” Evangelista said.
