Earlier this month Caesars Sportsbook was approved to begin taking legal sports wagers in Louisiana. And while the brand has not set a date for a full launch ofLouisiana sports bettingfor their sportsbook, a soft mobile launch is planned to take place within the next week and possibly within the next few days.

Once launched, this will be a great opportunity for fans to bet on their favorite teams, like the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA and New Orleans Saints in the NFL.

Read on to see what sports bettors in Louisiana can expect from one of the leading sports betting brands once it launches in the Bayou State.

Caesars Sportsbook has already been making waves in the US and is currently legal in nine states. This includes Arizona, New Jersey, Michigan, Virginia, Tennessee, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa and Pennsylvania.

New customers at Caesars Sportsbook in most of these states have been able to take advantage of incredible Caesars Sportsbook welcome bonuses. Caesars has been offeringa first-time risk-free bet of up to $5,000.

This is by far one of the best promotions in the industry for new customers. This gives new customers the chance to give their bankroll a huge boost when they create a new account.

By accumulating Caesars Rewards points every time you bet, existing customers are also able to redeem these points for one of many exciting rewards and prizes. The fall sports calendar is still young but Caesars Sportsbook has been offering various creative promotions. This has included a free authentic NFL jersey when you bet $100 on the NFL. And also a chance to double your money on NFL opening night if the Bucs scored versus the Cowboys.

Once Caesars Sportsbook launches in Louisiana, the Bayou State can surely expect to take advantage of many similar and new promotions as Caesars Sportsbook expands their landscape into the legal sports betting world.

Louisiana sports betting is set to launch this fall after legalization was approved on June 22, 2021.

All the major players are expected to be offering a variety of in-person and online betting options for Louisianans. Up to 41 licenses have been approved. This includes not only Caesars Sportsbook but also DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, WynnBET, FOX Bet and Barstool Sportsbook.

Once Caesars and other sportsbooks launch in Louisiana, sports betting will be open to those 21 and over in one of the parishes that voted for legalized sports betting. This was decided back in 2020 in a referendum vote.

Caesars has already been making partnerships in Louisiana having made deals with Louisiana State University and the New Orleans Saints. Caesars Sportsbook will have naming rights to the Caesars Sportsbook Skyline Club at Tiger Stadium. In the NFL, Caesars also has naming rights to the Saints Caesars Superdome.
