And most business owners near the site say they’re enthusiastic about the arrival of Caesars, despite some worries about traffic coming to pass.Ībout 400,000 people have visited the Danville Casino in its first three months, said Chris Albrecht, Caesars Virginia general manager. These initial months have been successful, according to Caesars and the city of Danville, in terms of visitation, hiring, revenue and collaboration.

The 24/7 temporary facility opened May 15 ahead of the permanent casino resort’s arrival next year. Three months ago Tuesday, the doors to the Danville Casino opened, and they have not closed since.
