Circa Las Vegas in the News
Vegas Makes a Comeback by James Albert of Fintech Zoom
“In the meantime, on the horizon, Circa Resort & On line casino, will debut October 28, 2020. Paying homage to Las Vegas’ vibrant historical past, Circa will likely be a ‘modern casino experience founded on the original principles of old-school hospitality. Fusing the glamour of vintage Vegas with modern luxuries and cutting-edge technology, guests can expect top-notch entertainment while enjoying honest, attentive and friendly service,’ say resort executives.“
Split Schedule Allows Work to Continue at Circa by Doug Puppel of ENR Southwest
“Facing supply-chain challenges and COVID-19 safety restrictions, developers of the $1-billion Circa took an unprecedented step this spring and opted for two completion dates. The casino, pool deck, sportsbook, restaurants and other revenue-generating areas of the property will open in October, while the 777-room hotel tower will have 512 of its rooms coming online near the end of the year.
Circa, which will be the first new resort built in downtown Las Vegas in 40 years, had been on track for an ahead-of-schedule Thanksgiving completion, according to co-owner Derek Stevens, with the tower adding a floor a week in late 2019. He says the construction team was able to refocus that energy and pursue two completion dates instead of one.“
VSiN Kicks Off Sports Betting Show From Illinois At Start of Football Season by Larry Henry of Casino.org
“Launched in 2017 by veteran sportscaster Brent Musburger, VSiN broadcasts daily from the South Point Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. The network is opening a second studio this fall at the Circa Resort, now under construction in downtown Las Vegas on Fremont Street. The Circa is expected to open in October.“
Casinos Feel Brunt of Hotel Industry ‘Collapse’ Caused by COVID-19 by Larry Henry of Casino.org
“Elsewhere, construction is also continuing in the casino industry. In Las Vegas, the $1 billion Circa Resort is nearing completion. The casino portion of the property is expected to open in October, with hotel rooms available for occupancy by the end of the year. Located at the western end of Fremont Street, the Circa is the first new hotel-casino built in downtown Las Vegas in 40 years. It has been hailed as an important element in reviving the downtown area.“
VSiN launching new sports broadcast today from Illinois by Erik Gibbs of CalvinAyer.com
“VSiN, which was co-founded by Brian Musburger, the nephew of long-time sports commentator Brent Musburger, has found its niche in the sports world and has quickly become an established name in the industry. After getting its start in Las Vegas in 2017, where it holds daily broadcasts from the South Point Casino, it launched on Sirius radio and made a debut in XFL broadcasting before the league threw in the towel. It now has plans to launch a new live sports gambling show, Betting Across America, in conjunction with BetMGM, provided regulators greenlight the project, and will put up a second Vegas-based studio this fall at the Circa Resort once the venue opens.“
Circa Resort in downtown Las Vegas hosting auditions for ‘Stadium Swim’ venue by Caitlin Lilly of Fox5 Vegas

Interested applicants are invited to try out for more than 100 positions across all departments, including cocktail servers, bartenders, barbacks, server assistants, food runners, lifeguards, pool hosts and box office cashiers.“
New Las Vegas Archway Highlights Downtown Casino District, Provokes Critics by Larry Henry of Casino.org
“The downtown casino district is undergoing a revival with the construction of the $1-billion Circa Resort. The casino district is centered on Fremont Street, known as Glitter Gulch.
The Circa is being built at the western end of Fremont Street in one of the historic parts of the city, near where the now-demolished train station once stood. The Plaza hotel-casino, then called the Union Plaza, was built at the site of the train station in 1971 and is still in operation.“
ESPN Airs Sports Wagering Show From Las Vegas In Time for NFL Opener by Larry Henry of Casino.org
“Circa Sports has announced it is entering into a partnership with Tuscany Suites and Casino to rebrand its sportsbook. This development gives Circa Sports a presence outside of downtown Las Vegas, where the $1 billion resort is nearing completion.
The Circa will also be the site of a second Vegas Stats and Information (VSiN) studio. The sports handicapping and analysis network, launched in 2017 by veteran broadcaster Brent Musburger, has a studio at the southern end of the Las Vegas Strip inside the South Point Casino.“
