In August 2016, the Margaritaville Restaurant and Casino opened, which included the new resort grand entry and lobby, a Margaritaville coffee shop located in the hotel lobby, a Margaritaville retail store and a resort gift store, connectivity entrances to the River Spirit Casino, a valet parking structure, and a 3,000-space parking facility with a climate-controlled walkway. The LandShark Landing pool bar, tropical-themed resort pool deck and Margaritaville Tiki Bar, outdoor event space, and new River Parks Trail will all be completed in the spring. Since breaking ground in 2013, the expansion project has only one element left to open.
River Spirit Casino Resort is one step away from completing its $365 million expansion project that includes its construction of the Margaritaville Casino and Restaurant complex.
