New in-persons sportsbook expands Caesars’ presence in the Buckeye State and complements its mobile sportsbook app
Caesars Entertainment has expanded its presence in Ohio with the opening of a new retail sportsbook at Northfield Park Racino.
The in-person Caesars Sportsbook has launched under a new partnership with Clairvest Group, which acquired the racino from MGM Resorts last week for $546 million.
The new sportsbook features an expansive LED video wall, five staffed betting windows, and a fleet of Caesars Sportsbook self-service betting kiosks.
“Northfield Park Racino gives us a strong new venue to connect with Northeast Ohio sports fans in a high-traffic entertainment destination,” said Eric Hession, president of Caesars Digital. “Its location just outside Cleveland, a market defined by some of the most passionate sports fans in the country, pairs our industry-leading technology with a lively atmosphere that enhances how fans watch and wager on sports throughout the year.”
Northfield Park Racino general manager Kevin Brady added: “We’re excited to partner with Caesars Sportsbook to bring even more energy and excitement to our guest experience. This collaboration is a strong addition to our Overtime Bar and Grill, enhancing the overall sports fan atmosphere and entertainment offering.”
As an official sports betting partner of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the launch expands Caesars’ presence in the Buckeye State, where it also powers the sportsbook at Eldorado Scioto Downs and operates a mobile sports betting app.
In February 2026, Ohio’s sports betting market generated total wagers of $767.5 million, an increase of 1 per cent year-on-year. Retail betting fell to its lowest level since July 2025 and was down by 18 per cent to $10.3 million, while online wagers climbed 1 per cent to $757.2 million.
