Caesars Entertainment Corporation, the world’s most diversified casino-entertainment provider, recently announced a 15 year partnership, making it the first founding partner of Las Vegas Stadium, which will be the future home to the Las Vegas Raiders, according to their official website.

This milestone partnership will bring Las Vegas’ first National Football League team together with a casino entertainment company to enhance the sports experience.

This is the first Raiders deal with a gaming and hospitality company, which will make available for the Caesars Entertainment customers and Total Rewards members access to exclusive experiences like the customized Caesars-branded Owner Suite at the 50-yard line, VIP dinners on the field, stadium tours, fantasy camp participation, training facility events and tickets to home games and most stadium events.

Caesars entertainment, as a founding partner, to create a strong presence, will host a branded stadium entrance and drop zone, digital signage, media, radio and print assets and also player and cheerleader appearances.

Marc Badain, President, Las Vegas Raiders, said, “We are honored to align with a company that shares the Raiders’ values of improving the local community and delivering exceptional customer service in creating this transformative project.”

The company recently announced its partnership with the Baltimore Ravens, Maryland’s only partnership between an NFL team and a casino. The partnership with the Las Vegas Raiders followed this announcement.

“Sports have long been a core part of the Caesars’ experience,” said Chris Holdren, Chief Marketing Officer for Caesars Entertainment. “With this deep partnership, Caesars will become an essential part of the game time ritual for Raiders fans everywhere. From activations to exclusive experiences, fans of the silver and black will see Caesars as their home on game day.”

The 65,000-seat stadium will bring 520,000 people to home games each year, when it opens for the 2020 NFL season.
