Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana

Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana will be a $300 million casino with a Hard Rock Cafe, Hard Rock Live concert center and a 200-room hotel.

The Gary casino will be operated by Hard Rock International owned by the Seminole Tribe of Florida.

In 2019 Indiana passed a new gaming law that authorized construction of a new casino in Gary. Spectacle Entertainment, who had purchased the two Majestic Star casino boats in Buffington Harbor in March 2019, was granted permission to move the Majestic Star casino licenses to a new casino to be constructed on land in Gary, Indiana.

On Dec 17, 2019 the Indiana Gaming Commission issued a final authorization to Spectacle Entertainment to replace its two Majestic Star Casino boats with a land casino in Gary at 29th Avenue and Burr Street. The commission also approved Hard Rock International as a minority owner.

A groundbreaking ceremony for the Hard Rock Casino Gary was held January 9, 2020. See News Article

In December 2020 the Indiana Gaming Commission suspended the gaming license of Rod Ratcliff, the former CEO and major shareholder of Spectacle Entertainment. The action stopped the licensing process for the Hard Rock and delayed the opening date. The issue was resolved in March 2021 and the Indiana Gaming Commission lifted its hold for the opening date.

Indiana removes hold on Hard Rock Gary opening

March 3, 2021

Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana can now proceed forward with announcing an opening date after the Indiana Gaming Commission accepted a resolution of ownership issues that had prompted a casino licensing hold. The grand opening has been targeted for Spring 2021; however, construction is nearly finished, and an updated announcement of a specific opening date is expected soon.

The Indiana Gaming Commission delayed the Hard Rock casino license due to ownership issues with Rod Ratcliff, the former CEO and major shareholder of Majestic Star. To resolve the issues, Ratcliff agreed to sell his ownership interests and permanently leave the state's gaming industry.

Ratcliff sold his shares of Hard Rock Northern Indiana to the Seminole Tribe of Florida, owners of the Hard Rock brand and a part owner in the Gary casino. Ratcliff sold additional shares to the company building Rocksino by Hard Rock in Terre Haute.

Hard Rock Gary's opening is delayed

February 4, 2021

As construction nears completion on the $300 million Hard Rock Casino in Gary Indiana, the Indiana Gaming Commission is deciding an ownership controversy regarding a major investor in the casino.

The commission has imposed an emergency suspension on the gaming license of Rod Ratcliff, the former CEO and major shareholder of Majestic Star. This action effectively stops the licensing of the Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana while Ratcliff is an owner or several background issues are sorted out.

A statement from the Indiana Gaming Commission reads:

'The new inland casino in Gary is important to the state and local community. The commission is focused on seeing the project completed and operational.

'Unfortunately, the actions of parties associated with Spectacle have created a high level of uncertainty regarding both suitability and project timeline. Until an acceptable path forward is identified, the commission will continue to act within its authority to protect gaming revenues and employees at the current operation in Gary.'

- Sara Tait, Executive Director

In the meantime, the Hard Rock Casino may sit empty after construction is completed. To offset a loss in tax revenues, the Indiana Gaming Commission has directed the Majestic Star Casinos on Lake Michigan to not shut down in March or April as planned, but instead be prepared to operate until at least June.
