Lilac Club Casino will hold a grand opening to the
public on Friday. The new location will operate under the state’s charitable
gaming model. In New Hampshire, casinos must donate at least 35% of table game
revenue to charities and nonprofits and 10% to the state and can retain the
remaining share. There are no commercial/retail casinos in the state.
Spanning 32,000 square feet, the new Lilac
Club Casino features over 200 exciting gaming machines and a wide
variety of popular table games like Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, a mix of
Carnival Games with progressive jackpots and a 12-table Poker room. Guests can even
try locally brewed New Hampshire beers on tap at Lucky Oak Bar &
Grill.
The new facility is the second location for Granite State
Gaming & Hospitality. The company has a casino in Hampton.
"We are truly honored to have celebrated this milestone
with our fellow community leaders," said Eric Barbaro, chief operating
officer of Granite State Gaming & Hospitality. "As we prepare for our
grand opening, we are thrilled to welcome guests from near and far to
experience everything our casino has to offer. Lilac
Club Casino is more than just a business; it's a vital part of our
community that will create jobs, foster local partnerships, and contribute to
the region's growth. We are excited to play a role in the continued success of Rochester and look forward to serving our guests and community for
many years to come."
The new casino expects to contribute an estimated $3 million
each year to a projected 73 nonprofits in Rochester and surrounding communities
while supporting up to 80 full- and part-time positions.
