Celebration Will Feature Gaming Promotions and More
Las Vegas—Downtown Las Vegas’ iconic Fremont Hotel and Casino will celebrate 60 years in business on Wednesday, May 18, and will continue its diamond anniversary celebrations every Thursday throughout the summer with kiosk games, dining specials, Slot Dollar drawings and even a special commemorative gaming chip.
“The Fremont has been a part of the Downtown Las Vegas experience since 1956, so it’s only fitting that we would create some excitement of our own with the celebration of this milestone anniversary,” said Jim Sullivan, Vice President and General Manager of Fremont Hotel and Casino.
Fremont’s rich history began on May 18, 1956, when it opened as one of the first high-rise hotels in Las Vegas. Boyd Gaming assumed control of the property in 1985 when the Company purchased the Fremont and its sister property, the Stardust.
A kickoff celebration for the Fremont’s 60th anniversary will be held on Wednesday, May 18 at noon. Boyd Gaming Executive Chairman Bill Boyd will be joined by former Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman to kick off the festivities, which will feature cupcakes and champagne, and a reveal of the new limited-edition 60th anniversary gaming chip. The public is invited to attend.
Anniversary promotions will be held on May 18 to celebrate the big day. These specials include:
B Connected members can keep the anniversary celebration going with more exciting promotions, all held on Thursdays each week throughout the summer, beginning May 19:
