Betfred launches retail sportsbook at Iowa’s Grand Falls Casino

Betfred USA Sports, the US subsidiary of British bookmaker Betfred, has launched a new sportsbook at Iowa’s Grand Falls Casino & Golf Resort.

The retail sportsbook launch comes as part of Betfred’s partnership with Grand Falls Casino-owner Elite Casino Resorts, which launched sports betting at its Rhythm City Casino and Riverside Casino & Golf Resort venues last August.

An official grand opening will take place on Thursday, with the 3,500 square foot sportsbook featuring 80 screens, 10 recliners, 22 lounging chairs, 2 reservable VIP areas, 5 high top tables, a full bar and food service.

An online and mobile launch will follow in the coming weeks, which will allow customers to bet from anywhere within the state of Iowa.

“We're very proud of our partnership with Elite Casino Resorts to bring a Las Vegas quality sportsbook to Grand Falls Casino and sports bettors in Sioux Falls, Northwest Iowa and SW Minnesota,” said Betfred USA Sports chief operating officer Bryan Bennett. “Grand Falls already provides a fantastic gaming and resort experience to its patrons and we look forward to adding to that with the Betfred Sportsbook.”

Grand Falls Casino general manager Sharon Haselhoff added: “We are thrilled and excited to work together with Betfred USA Sports who brings decades of retail and online expertise to our region.

“Grand Falls always strives on being a one-of-a-kind destination and we believe the sportsbook experience will be like no other in the Midwest.”
