The new Osage Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma will open in August 2018, with a two-story, 247,000 square foot casino and a 74,000 square foot hotel built next to its existing casino, which will then close. Chief Executive Officer Bryon Bighorse said, “This is a $150 million investment in our expansion, which has produced a world-class gaming venue, We are proud to present this new gaming center, complete with a brand new hotel, to all our guests, and we know it will serve this area well for many years to come.”
The new Osage Casino will feature a state-of-the-art gaming floor with high-limit gaming, plus a 141-room hotel, event space, sports bar, grill, café, resort-style pool and adaptable meeting spaces. “We are looking forward to hosting groups in these spaces to show off how versatile we are. We will be a great, new option for meetings and events in a space that is flexible, fully staffed and gives views you can’t find anywhere else,” Bighorse said.
A major feature of the new venue will be the 4,000 square foot craft microbrewery, Nine Band Brewery from Allen, Texas. Nine Band will brew its award-winning beer on-site in large vats and a 20-barrel Prospero brewery system. Guests can watch the process from an adjacent bar. “We’re so pleased to be the first – and only – distributor of Nine Band Brewery beer in Oklahoma. We wanted to bring in craft beer brewed on-site to offer our clients something they can’t find at any other casino in this region. This is a new concept for casinos, and we’re so pleased to offer something different and fun,” Bighorse said.
To prepare for the casino’s August opening, the brewery will begin production in July. Four flavors will be offered: Nine Band Pale Ale, Hoop Snake Hefeweizen, Blue Lacy Brown Ale and the Triple.
“We are so excited to offer this new, beautiful casino and brewery to our guests. We hope to see everyone out in August to enjoy all the amenities we’ll have to offer,” Bighorse said.
