Players will have a chance to compete for a $12m prize pool.

Circa Sports has announced that the Circa Million IV and Circa Survivor pro football contests will be back in Las Vegas during August. The events will take place during three weekends in August and offer a $12m prize pool.

Participants will have access to Contest Weekends during the month, a party for bettors on Fremont Street that will run on August 12, 19 and 26. Players will also be able to attend exclusive events as part of Contest Weekends, including a performance by Canadian rock band Theory of a Deadman. Contestants will receive VIP tickets for the show.

All Circa Million IV or Circa Survivor entrants will be able to participate in all Contest Weekends events.

Those who enter the competition will also be able to take advantage of a three-night stay at D Las Vegas, compliments of Circa.

The contests will start on August 12 and run until August 13. A meet and greet with Circa Sports CEO Derek Stevens and VP of Operations Mike Palm will be held during the first weekend of events at Golden Gate Hotel & Casino. 

Simple Plan will perform at Stadium Swim during the second weekend of events, which will run August 19 to August 20. An open bar will also be available.

The third weekend – running from August 26 to August 27 – will feature a Circa Football Preview, which is a networking opportunity via a meeting and convention space.

Circa Sports Sportsbook Manager Chris Bennett, Senior Content Strategist Adam Chernoff and host Mike Lombardi will attend the event. Hall of Fame pro-football linebacker Brian Urlacher will also make an appearance during the Circa Football Preview. 

Circa Sports recently announced to operate a new sportsbook at the Legends Bay Casino. The new casino is scheduled to open later this year at the Legends at Sparks Marina shopping mall, which is located east of Reno along I-80.

Olympia Gaming officials claim that the Circa Sports sportsbook at Legends will be the largest in Northern Nevada. Circa Sports also operates a large sportsbook at Stevens’ Circa Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
