Hollywood Casino Bangor

What Hollywood Casino Bangor does

Hollywood Casino Bangor is a single-property integrated casino resort located at 500 Main Street in Bangor, Maine, operated by PENN Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN), a publicly traded gaming and hospitality company. The property is the only commercial casino and the only live poker room in the state of Maine, combining casino gaming, a 152-key hotel, two dining venues, harness racing, event spaces, and live entertainment under one roof. Customers include regional Maine residents, New England visitors, business travelers, and tourists, with the multi-tier PENN Play loyalty program (Advantage, Preferred, Elite, Owners Club) driving repeat visits and cross-property engagement across PENN's 40+ property portfolio.

The property operates 715+ slot machines and video poker games, 14+ table games (Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, Three Card Poker, Mississippi Stud, Ultimate Texas Hold'Em, High Card Flush, World Poker Tour Heads-Up Hold'Em), and a four-table live poker room, alongside a 148-room hotel with four suites. Revenue is generated across six streams: casino gaming, hotel accommodations, food and beverage (Hops House 99 craft beer pub and Zombie Dogz grab-and-go), pari-mutuel harness racing (live April-November, simulcast 365 days/year), live entertainment (Sound Stage Lounge, High Stakes House of Comedy), and corporate events/banquets across the Epic Ballroom (capacity 500), Lancaster Room (capacity 321), and Chairman's Boardroom (capacity 20). The PENN Play mobile app powers digital loyalty, mobile check-in, digital room keys, and tier-based rewards, while partnerships with BravoPokerLive (poker waitlist management), Ticketmaster (PENN Cash ticket redemption), Boomerang (lost and found), and PENN Marketplace (e-commerce redemption portal) extend the digital surface.

The business is a direct-to-consumer hospitality and gaming operation open 8AM-2AM daily. Pricing varies seasonally, with AAA/AARP discounts up to 10%, Advance Purchase discounts up to 15% (non-refundable prepayment), and PENN Heroes discounts (military/veterans/first responders) up to 30%. A $10 daily amenity fee covers Wi-Fi, gym access, parking, and a $5 food credit. While specific revenue figures are not publicly disclosed for this individual property, the integrated nature, gaming floor size, hotel key count, and exclusive Maine market position indicate a mid-tier regional casino-resort scale within PENN's broader multi-billion-dollar portfolio.
