Encore Boston Harbor

What Encore Boston Harbor does

Encore Boston Harbor is a single-asset luxury integrated resort and casino located at One Broadway in Everett, Massachusetts, operated by Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC (NASDAQ: WYNN). The 27-floor, three-million-square-foot property opened in 2019 following a $2.6 billion development — the largest private single-phase development in Massachusetts history — and represents Wynn's only Northeast U.S. presence. The resort serves affluent leisure travelers, gaming enthusiasts, dining and nightlife patrons, sports bettors, and corporate event planners through a vertically integrated hospitality, gaming, and entertainment offering.

The core product surface combines a Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotel with 210,000 square feet of gaming space housing over 2,700 slot machines (from IGT, Konami, Aristocrat, Everi, and Light & Wonder), a 36-table poker room (The Loft), electronic table games, high-limit gaming, and The Sportsbook with 70+ televisions and 24-hour betting kiosks. Ancillary revenue is generated through 11 food and beverage venues (Rare Steakhouse, Mystique Asian restaurant, Fratelli, Red 8, Giardino, Frank & Nick's, Shake Shack, Dunkin', Cheese Meet Wine), the Mémoire nightclub (650-guest capacity), Mystique Lounge, Center Bar, Rare Lounge, The Spa and Salon, and luxury retail including Wynn Collection, Wynn Boutique, and Watches of Switzerland. Distribution and access infrastructure include a proprietary fleet of luxury motor yacht harbor shuttles to Boston's Seaport, neighborhood runner bus routes, and an MBTA Orange Line subsidy — a first for a private developer.

The business model is direct-to-consumer, monetizing through gaming transaction fees, hotel nightly rates starting from $579 for promotional offers, F&B and retail transaction revenue, spa services, sports betting, and event venue rentals. The Wynn Rewards loyalty program drives repeat visitation through tier credits, free slot play, and comps. The property is supported by an employee base that has scaled from 3,200 to approximately 5,000, generates over $210 million in annual state tax revenues and fees, and procures nearly $100 million annually in goods and services from regional and certified diverse vendors. Strategic operating partnerships with Big Night Entertainment Group (Mystique and Mémoire) and Frank DePasquale's DePasquale Ventures (Fratelli, Giardino, Frank & Nick's) anchor the culinary and nightlife verticals.
