Terre Haute Casino Resort opened on April 5th, 2024, and has been a destination for local residents and tourists alike.

Yet, General Manager Austin Muchemore said the opening had the biggest effect on new employees.

“We have over 550 team members, over 90% of them had never set foot in a casino before until the day we opened”, Muchemore said. “It’s really been remarkable to look at the evolution as they’ve, every day, gotten more and more experience. We’ve gotten better at food, we’ve gotten better at service, we’ve added things that we weren’t capable of doing a year ago.”

One of the things added along the way was concerts at the Sycamore Event Center.
