Clark County Filings Reveal Details About Bally’s Las Vegas Plans

Overview of Bally’s Las Vegas Development
Bally’s Corporation has shared new information regarding its mixed-use development project near the Athletics Las Vegas ballpark. This large-scale endeavor is expected to cost over a billion dollars, involve several construction permits, and span multiple years before completion.
Comprehensive Plans for a Multi-Use Complex
The project aims to establish a versatile complex that includes a casino, hotel, theater, retail outlets, and dining facilities. According to filings submitted to Clark County, Bally’s intends to roll out the development in distinct phases. Throughout this process, the company will need to obtain approximately 13 separate building permits.
These permit applications were filed in December 2025, with an anticipated project completion date near the end of 2030. The estimated investment for this venture is around $1.19 billion.
Initial phases are set to begin with the creation of a shared access route designed to serve both the new development and the neighboring Athletics Las Vegas ballpark. In 2026, Bally’s plans to seek approvals for constructing a podium structure and a theater.
By 2027, groundwork for the hotel tower is expected to start, with actual construction of the hotel anticipated to commence the following year. This phase will mark the build-out of Bally’s first hotel tower within the development.
Meanwhile, construction on the Athletics Las Vegas ballpark, valued at $2 million, is already in progress.
Bally’s Strategic Growth Initiatives
Beyond Las Vegas, Bally’s is actively expanding its presence across the United States and internationally. In Chicago, the company currently operates a temporary casino as it continues to develop its permanent facility.
Recent challenges encountered in Chicago have sparked public discussions on the possible legalization of video gaming terminals (VGTs) in the area.
Additionally, Bally’s has announced a substantial financing boost, increasing its total loan commitments to $1.1 billion. This financial backing supports its ambitions to strengthen its position in New York following the acquisition of a downstate casino license.
Internationally, Bally’s recently acquired a controlling interest in The Star Entertainment Group, an Australian casino operator facing operational difficulties. Bally’s leadership expressed strong concern regarding the previous mismanagement of that company.
