The Aurora City Council has approved special rules around the sale of liquor and other alcohol at the new Hollywood Casino resort, which is still under construction.
The Farnsworth Bilter Entertainment District, which only includes the casino and resort site, has its own unique liquor licenses that restaurants, bars and other locations within the casino can apply for. These licenses are different than others given by the city, for instance, by allowing patrons to take their drinks with them if they stroll to another part of the resort.
The new location of Hollywood Casino-Aurora — located along Farnsworth Avenue and Bilter Road, across the street from Chicago Premium Outlets mall and near the Interstate 88 interchange — will replace the casino currently in downtown.
