Hollywood Park Casino is a casino and sports bar in Inglewood, California. Originally part of the Hollywood Park Racetrack, the casino moved to a new building in 2016 after the closure and demolition of the racetrack in 2013.
In 1994 the Hollywood Park Casino, with a poker card room, was added to the Hollywood Park Racetrack complex. The racetrack was sold and shut down in December 2013 though the casino operations continued while the current casino building opened in October 2016. The casino is part of the Hollywood park site which is currently undergoing redevelopment to include housing, luxury hotels, a movie theatre and the new Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park which will be home to the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers of the National Football League. It is the first building of the complex that has been constructed and opened.
The original casino owners were the Hollywood Park Operating Co., which also owned the race track. Afterwords the casino went though a series of owners including Churchill Downs. It's current owners are Stockbridge Capital, a San Francisco land developer which purchased the casino and then racetrack 2005 for nearly $260 million. Stockbridge in addition to owning the casino are also the land developers for the former track site and a partner in the under construction football stadium. It is hoped that the new casino and the incoming NFL stadium will improve the fortunes of the Casino which had been on a downturn since the Los Angeles Kings and Los Angeles Lakers left the Los Angeles Forum in May 1999.
The Hollywood Park Casino contains 125 tables for both Poker and California Games including chandelier lighting and big-screen HD televisions on the walls and behind the Century Bar & Grill sports bar. There are Separate rooms for high-stakes players and celebrity poker tournaments. It also features high scale sit-down restaurant and sports bar. Like it's predecessor only card games are allowed in the casino.
