Penn National Gaming has previously said that Hollywood Casino Morgantown would open by the end of the year.

And it will. But not by much.

The $111 million casino in Caernarvon Township, Berks County will open at noon, Dec. 22 pending final regulatory approvals. Hollywood Casino Morgantown is located at the intersections of the Pennsylvania Turnpike (exit 298), I-176, and the Morgantown Expressway (Rt. 10).

This will be Penn Nationals fourth casino in the state and the closest facility to its headquarters in Wyomissing, Berks County. Penn National also operates Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course, Hollywood Casino at the Meadows and Hollywood Casino York.

The 80,000 square-foot facility in Berks County will feature 750 slot machines and 30 table games, a climate-controlled outdoor gaming terrace, a Barstool Sportsbook with a jumbotron, and dining options.

Barstool Sportsbook will include a 150-seat full-service restaurant, with a wide selection of food and beverage options, from steaks to classic pub fare, more than a dozen craft and domestic beers and hand-crafted cocktails inspired by classic sports movies. Betting windows and kiosks for sports and racing will be located throughout, along with interactive games, an outdoor fire pit and a Sportsbook merchandise station.

The casino will boast a Tony Lukes Philly cheesesteak restaurant and an adjacent Bar 76.

Hollywood Casino Morgantown will also be home to the Red Lotus Asian Kitchen featuring popular noodle and southeast Asian specialties.

Prior to the grand opening, Penn National will host two invitation-only test days, with gaming proceeds donated to United Way of Berks County, Honey Brook Food Pantry and the Jarett Yoder Foundation.

The casino will employ 375 people in a variety of positions. Interested applicants can visit the Hollywood Casino Morgantown Career center, located at the Holiday Inn Morgantown at 6170 Morgantown Road.
