Anticipation is growing ahead of Circa Sportsbook’s launch in Illinois. The operator is hoping to become the eighth legal Illinois sports betting operator later this year.
Circa will launch both an online sportsbook in Illinois and open a retail sportsbook at The Temporary by American Place Casino, a Full House Resorts property in Waukegan which opened on Feb. 17.
There isn’t an exact date on when operations in Illinois will be up and running. However, Circa’s director of operations Jeff Benson told PlayIllinois that the sportsbook hopes to launch in Illinois by August. Circa’s marketing manager Aaron Oster recently confirmed that timeline in a story in the Chicago Tribune.
