The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation and Cache Creek Casino in the San Francisco Bay area have decided to delay grand opening plans originally scheduled for September due to Covid-19. Concerts also will be postponed until further notice.
According to a release, the decision was made “out of an abundance of caution” and “with the health and wellness of guests and employees as our top priority.”
Among the big names who will not perform as scheduled are Train, the Beach Boys, Clint Black and Boyz II Men. New dates will be announced once confirmed.
Although these events are postponed, the casino, hotel, and all amenities are open at this time with appropriate Covid-19 protocols in place.
Cache Creek was among the first tribal properties to close in order to slow the spread of Covid-19. The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation provided full pay and benefits to staff for months throughout the original closure. And once vaccines became available, the Yocha Dehe Fire Department hosted several on-site vaccine clinics, providing more than 2,000 vaccine doses to casino and tribal employees, as well as the rural Capay Valley community.
Tribal leadership and resort management will continue to work with county and state public health officials to inform future decisions regarding events, ticketed entertainment and all other operations at Cache Creek Casino Resort.
