Caesars unveils $435M transformation of Harrah’s

An American hotel and casino entertainment company, Caesars Entertainment, founded and based in Reno, Nevada, has officially unveiled its $435 million transformation of Harrah’s into Caesars New Orleans, marking a new chapter in its history.

Caesars Entertainment organized a celebration event. The event began with a vibrant Canal Street procession featuring Caesar, a New Orleans second-line band, and Mardi Gras floats. Guests and officials moved into the newly renovated space, led by the lively second-line parade.

Anthony Carano, President & COO of Caesars Entertainment, commented:

“We’re incredibly proud to officially introduce Caesars to New Orleans. From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it.”

Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, said:

“This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.”

Caesars New Orleans, currently the city’s only land-based casino, expands over 150,000 square feet. The project includes almost 800 hotel rooms across two towers, a World Series of Poker Room, and Louisiana’s first Nobu. Moroever, the dining and gaming spaces will offer various options with over 1,300 slot machines, table games, outdoor gaming courtyards, and the new Caesars Sportsbook.
