Over the past 17 years, Casino Aztar has grown to become a premier regional entertainment destination. Property investments of over $231 million include a riverfront pavilion, a 250-room hotel, a conference center, a 96-room boutique hotel with an ultralounge, and several restaurant venues.
Tropicana Entertainment has now made the ultimate investment with the complete rebranding of Casino Aztar to Tropicana Evansville, including new signs which provide a stronger sense of arrival to the downtown casino property. General Manager Ward Shaw commented that “This exciting transition will better leverage the “Tropicana†brand to attract new guests from outlying regions as well as symbolize the continued guest improvements that we’ve made over the last several years for those customers that haven’t visited us in some time.â€
Events to celebrate the transition are currently underway and include giveaways of overnight stays and Tropicana merchandise. Trop Advantage® members may also register to win trips to other Tropicana Entertainment properties including Atlantic City, Lake Tahoe and Aruba. Celebration cake will be served during the weekend of June 14th in the Riverfront Pavilion.
Tropicana Evansville invites you, our press partners, to join Tropicana Evansville General Manager, Ward Shaw and Evansville Mayor, Lloyd Winnecke for a lively, Las Vegas-style press conference on Friday, June 14 at 11AM in the Tropicana Hotel Lobby. We hope to see you there!
