The Emerald Queen Casino & Hotel in Tacoma, Washington has entered a partnership with the nearby Tacoma Dome indoor multi-purpose arena.
Under the deal, which runs for five years, Emerald Queen will become the official casino hotel partner of the venue. The 21,000-capacity Tacoma Dome is located less than two miles from the casino. Since opening its doors in 1981, Tacoma Dome has played host to various acts, including iconic rock band AC/DC.
According to Emerald Queen, the partnership will focus on shared commitments to entertainment and community engagement in the local region. The deal will also see Tacoma Dome provide Emerald Queen with event tickets for its top-tier players.
In addition, the link-up will celebrate the history and cultural contributions of the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. Emerald Queen is owned and operated by the Puyallup Tribe.
Tacoma Dome Deal Offers Opportunities for Community
“Emerald Queen Casino has long been a destination for world-class entertainment,” Emerald Queen CEO Yale Rowe said. “Partnering with the Tacoma Dome is a natural fit to amplify our offerings to the community and those visiting our area.”
Adam Cook, director of Tacoma Venues & Events at the Tacoma Dome, also welcomed the deal. Cook said it will allow more people in the community to attend high-profile events at the venue.
“Through this partnership, we’ll bring more opportunities for the community to experience some of the best events the state has to offer,” Cook said.
Upcoming concerts at Tacoma Dome include international music artists such as Ado, A.R. Rahman and ATEEZ.
