Churchill Downs Incorporated opens The Rose Gaming Resort7 November 2024(PRESS RELEASE) -- Churchill Downs Incorporated announced today the grand opening of The Rose Gaming Resort in Dumfries, Virginia. The worldclass entertainment resort includes 1,650 historical racing machines, eight bars and restaurants and a hotel with over 100 rooms and event space. The 175,000-square-foot entertainment venue has 2,500 parking spaces and 62 acres of greenspace with a seven-acre public park. “Churchill Downs Incorporated is thrilled to deliver a destination resort that will be a major economic contributor to the Town of Dumfries and Northern Virginia,” said Bill Carstanjen, CEO of CDI. “Along with our local hiring commitments and strong family-supporting wages, we are committed to continued investment in Prince William County as we are proud to do for all of the communities in which we operate in Virginia.” CDI invested $460 million in The Rose and has added approximately 500 permanent jobs. The development will contribute to the expansion of Thoroughbred horse racing in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As a result of the addition of the 1,650 HRMs, Colonial Downs Racetrack in New Kent Virginia will add 16 days of live racing to the 2025 racing season. As part of a community partnership, the Company has committed $2 million to fund the design of a new community center to be built in Dumfries. Since 2021, CDI has also contributed $400,000 in cash and in-kind donations to area nonprofits through the Rosie’s Gives Back program.
