Harrah’s New Orleans and Horseshoe Bossier City Hotel & Casino, two Louisiana-based Caesars’s properties, accepted their first-ever in-person sports bets through the Caesars Sportsbook last week-end. Both locations will each open a brand-new retail sportsbook in 2022

“Caesars is proud of our commitment to Louisiana and the entire Gulf Coast region. Today was historic for us as a company and we're excited to open our new Caesars Sportsbook locations at Harrah's New Orleans and Horseshoe Bossier City to honor the legacy these properties hold in the region. We can't wait to introduce all that sports betting has to offer to sports fans while sharing our emphasis on responsible gaming”, commented Dan Real, Regional President, Caesars Entertainment.

With mobile sports wagering still pending regulatory approval, sports fans in the region are encouraged to visit these properties to learn about in-person sports betting and responsible gaming while taking advantage of this new entertainment offering.  

"We are excited to bring sports betting to our valued customers in Louisiana," added Eric Hession, Co-President of Caesars Digital. "The launch of our sportsbooks at Harrah's and Horseshoe is just the beginning. Once mobile sports betting is live, we look forward to serving sports fans on every platform and offering all of our customers unforgettable experiences with Caesars Rewards."

In addition to the in-person bets being accepted at these properties, the Caesars Sportsbook app is available for download on iOS and Android by eligible sports fans in Louisiana.
