The Catawba Indians on Tuesday revealed when they’ll open their $1 billion Two Kings Casino Resort 35 miles west of Charlotte.
While the main casino complex is expected to open in spring 2027, a single-story “introductory” casino is on target for a March 2026 opening, tribal officials said during a media tour of the 2.2 million-square-foot project.
Construction of the main casino complex started about a year ago. That includes the introductory casino, three levels of covered parking, a back-of-house level and a top level with the main casino floor and restaurants.
Via an indoor “skywalk,” the casino complex will attach to a 24-story, 385-room hotel that’s also well underway.
The casino complex will have 4,300 slot machines, 100 table games and 11 restaurants, including a steakhouse, an Italian restaurant, a marketplace with six venues, a café and a grab-and-go outlet. Restaurant names will be unveiled closer to the opening, officials said.
