Solid Growth for Hard Rock

The Hard Rock Casino continues to be the go-to spot for visitors and residents in Indiana. Casino President Matt Schuffert stated that the success of the venue and other casinos in the area seem to be attributed to the weather and features.

February saw the casino earn almost 10% more than the previous year with solid growth for the venue. In speaking to the media, Schuffert said that customers have provided good comments on the venues’ all-you-can-eat crab legs and there are new high limit slots that players are enjoying. The casino has received such good feedback on the games that they are adding more in the future.

The casino expects the revenues to keep rolling in as they prepare for huge upcoming concerts. Hard Rock will welcome Pitbull in April and Diana Ross in May. Kevin Hart is scheduled to bring his comedy tour to the casino in June.

This lineup, along with others on the schedule, will help to bring in more tourists. More visitors mean more money spent on hotel stays, dining, and gaming.
