Bally’s Twin River holds ceremony to celebrate casino expansion

State and town officials also attended to celebrate the placement of the final beam in the exterior of the flagship casino.

Bally’s Corporation held a topping-off ceremony to commemorate the 40,000-square foot development project at Twin River and to celebrate the contributions of the hundreds of workers involved in the casino’s expansion.

Rhode Island state and town officials, including Governor Dan McKee, attended the celebration.

The centerpiece of the event was placing the final beam in the exterior of the flagship casino, a Bally’s tradition according to Marc Crisafulli, Executive Vice President of Bally’s Corporation.

“In a time-honored tradition, we celebrate the placement of the last beam on the exterior structure of what will soon be our 40,000-square-foot expansion to the gaming floor,” Crisafulli said.

Crisafulli also took time during the event to recognize the workers who contributed to the expansion.

“Importantly, it’s also an opportunity to publicly thank the 20 construction trades and hundreds of men and women who will have a hand in this project over the coming year,” he said.

McKee also acknowledged Bally’s accomplishment and said the state looks forward to the long-term benefits once the project is complete.

“This marks another important milestone for not only Bally’s Twin River but for Rhode Island itself,” McKee said. “We are grateful to Bally’s for their ongoing partnership that contributes so much to our workforce, our economy, and our state as a whole. We look forward to the completion of this crucial expansion and continued investment in Rhode Island’s success.”
