Caesars Entertainment on Thursday shared artist renderings for Harrah’s Columbus, NE Racing and Casino, the company’s first such destination in the state. In partnership with Columbus Exposition and Racing, the property will feature a one-mile thoroughbred track, longest in the state.

In addition to the track, it is expected to have a 28,000-square-foot casino and sportsbook with more than 500 slot machines and 14 table games.

The property will have a Brew Brothers restaurant and a bar called Wishbones, which officials said is “a nod to the hometown favorite event center that closed its doors in 2021.”
