The Circa Resort & Casino in downtown Las Vegas has pushed up its opening to Oct. 28, roughly two months ahead of schedule, but the Circa’s hotel rooms will open later in the year.

On Oct. 28, the Circa plans to open its two-story casino (1,350 slot machines and 49 table games) and its three-story, stadium-style sportsbook. The property’s pool amphitheater (six pools, two spas and a 14 million-pixel screen that will air sporting events) will also be open.

Restaurants due to open include Saginaw’s Delicatessen, steakhouse venue Barry’s Downtown Prime, sports bar Victory Burger & Wings Co., and Carolina-style barbecue joint Project BBQ. The Asian-inspired 8 East is expected to follow in December.

The nine-floor parking garage, called the Garage Mahal, will also open in October. The complex will offer valet and self-parking, as well as a first floor for Uber and Lyft transportation.

The 777-room Circa will be the first new hotel to open in downtown Las Vegas in nearly four decades.

Circa hasn’t announced an opening date for its hotel tower even though it plans to start taking reservations on June 24. Circa said it expects to open hotel rooms before the end of the year.
