Rivers Casino Pittsburgh

What Rivers Casino Pittsburgh does

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is a single integrated casino resort property located at 777 Casino Drive on Pittsburgh's North Shore, operating since 2009 under a Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board license. The property is legally held by Holdings Acquisition Co., L.P. (doing business as Rivers Casino Pittsburgh and The Landing Hotel Pittsburgh) and is part of a five-property Rivers Casino portfolio owned by Rush Street Gaming LLC, which also operates properties in Des Plaines IL, Philadelphia PA, Portsmouth VA, and Schenectady NY.

The core offering is a casino floor combining slot machines, table games, and a poker room, augmented by the on-site BetRivers Sportsbook for both retail and online/mobile sports wagering, and the Rush Rewards loyalty program that links gaming, sports betting, dining, and hotel spend across all Rivers properties. The Landing Hotel Pittsburgh provides on-site accommodations, the Event Center hosts concerts, comedy shows, and sports watch parties, Martorano's Prime operates as the signature steakhouse, and a renovated and doubled riverfront ballroom (completed 2024) supports expanded wedding and corporate event hosting. Supporting technology includes the Casino4Fun social gaming platform and AudioEye-driven web accessibility monitoring.

The business model is a multi-stream physical-resort operation: revenue is generated via transaction-based gaming (slots, tables, poker, sports betting handle), recurring hotel occupancy, food and beverage sales, ticketed entertainment, and professional-services fees for event hosting. Customer acquisition is primarily direct-to-consumer through on-site visitation, social media, email/newsletter, third-party ticketing (Etix, Opentable), and the BetRivers digital channel, with retention driven by Rush Rewards and patron credit lines. The target customer is the 21+ adult gaming and entertainment consumer in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, with secondary demand from event attendees (weddings, concerts, corporate functions) and hotel guests.
