Casino Fandango, Entertainment complex in Carson City, Nevada
Casino Fandango is a large entertainment complex in Carson City, Nevada, offering a gaming floor with slot machines, table games, and a sports betting area. A movie theater and an adjacent hotel are also part of the complex.
Casino Fandango opened in 2003 as one of the most ambitious entertainment investments Carson City had seen in years. Its arrival brought new jobs to the area and helped draw visitors to a city better known for its role as the state capital than as a gaming destination.
Casino Fandango draws a local crowd as much as tourists, and the movie theater inside makes it a gathering spot for families and neighbors from Carson City. On any given evening, the dining areas fill with people who may not be there to gamble at all.
The complex is open around the clock, so there is no need to plan around opening hours. Weekends and evenings tend to be busier, especially at the gaming tables and in the theater, so visiting on a weekday can be more relaxed.
Carson City is the state capital of Nevada but has never been a major gaming hub the way Las Vegas or Reno are. That makes Casino Fandango one of the few casinos in the country operating within a US state capital city.
