Parx Casino Shippensburg, the Category 4 “mini-casino” and satellite of the successful Parx Casino in Bensalem, will open in February 2023, the operator announced on its Facebook page.
The 73,000-square-foot casino, originally slated to open last month, will feature “approximately” 500 slot machines, 48 electronic table games, a “first class” sports bar and 100-seat restaurant, according to the operator.
The restaurant will feature a full bar and wide selection of beers. The menu will feature stone-baked pizzas made to order in an onsite, live-fire oven as well as burgers, sandwiches, chicken parmigiana, spaghetti and meatballs, fish and chips and much more.
The casino will also feature sports wagering kiosks.
The Parx casino will be Pennsylvania’s fourth Category 4 casino. Category 4 casinos were created by Pennsylvania’s 2017 gaming expansion law to address underserved areas. The so-called “mini-casinos” are restricted to 750 slot machines and 30 table games on opening with an additional 10 tables via petition.
