The venue officially opened to the public on Thursday, September 5, the same day as the 2024-2024 NFL season kicks off.

Fanatics sportsbook has announced the launch of a retail sportsbook location under a new partnership with Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City. The Fanatics sportsbook at Ocean Casino Resort is located inside The Gallery, a 12,000 sq ft gaming and bar experience that serves as the centerpiece of the casino. 

"Fanatics boasts an unmatched roster of the world's most renown sports leagues, teams and global brands and we are excited to present these to our guests here at Ocean," Ocean Casino Resort GM Bill Callahan said. 

The venue officially opened to the public on Thursday, September 5, in time for the beginning of the 2024-2025 NFL season. The Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens kick off the year in an AFC Championship rematch hosted by the Chiefs. 

"It's an exciting day in our company's continuous evolution as we announce the opening of Fanatics sportsbook at Ocean Casino Resort," Fanatics Betting and Gaming CBO Ari Borod said. 

"As Fanatics grows its gaming presence in New Jersey, Ocean represents the perfect partner to deliver an elevated retail sports betting experience at the premier hotel in Atlantic City."

The new Fanatics sportsbook will cater to guests searching for a sports betting experience, offering legal betting markets for all major sports including professional and college football, basketball, hockey, baseball, tennis, soccer and more.

All development and trading of sports betting markets will be done in-house as reported by the operator and resort.

Sports fans can place wagers at betting windows or self-service betting terminals throughout the venue while the space also offers a 17-foot open-air staircase that leads to Balcony Bar, a mezzanine bar and lounge.
