Hollywood Casino Aurora Review Jump to comments

Update Oct 2022: PENN Entertainment (formerly Penn National Gaming) is moving its Hollywood Casino Aurora property from its current location on the Fox River in downtown Aurora, Illinois, where it has been home since opening in 1993, to a site closer to the Reagan Memorial Tollway (I-88), across from the Chicago Premium Outlets Mall on Farnsworth Avenue. The new facility will reportedly include an attached hotel and is expected to open sometime around 2025. The casino relocation plan was unanimously approved on Oct. 25 2022 by the Aurora City Council. 

When it's time to get your gamble on, or to see great live entertainment, enjoy one of three incredible restaurants, or just get in on the action - Hollywood Casino Aurora has you covered. You will find over 40,000 square feet of gambling space devoted to more than 1,000 slot machines, 21 table games and live poker - and the casino is open almost all night, every night!

The only way to win a jackpot is to play the game, and you will never come out on top of the house if you don't lay your money down. This stationary boat casino is located in Aurora, Illinois on a little island on the Fox River. Use our handy map for directions if you are driving, or book a nearby motel right from the site for incredible bargains.
