The temporary Bally’s Chicago opened its new VIP Lounge for high rollers with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Monday. Amenities include private space away from the Medinah Temple gambling floor, complimentary food, non-alcoholic beverages, comfortable seating, and televisions showing sports and entertainment programming.
The new space is located on the third level and opens daily for VIP Bally Rewards members, with seating for 30 people at tables seating two to six people each. The temporary casino also introduced a new VIP Player Services window, which opens on Fridays and Saturdays and will offer Player’s Club and cashier transactions for Legend and Superstar Bally’s Rewards Members.
Mark Wong, Vice President and General Manager, said: “As an exclusive benefit for VIP Bally Rewards members, the Bally’s Chicago VIP Lounge offers a relaxing space away from the gaming floor to socialize and enjoy complimentary food and non-alcoholic drinks.
“Combined with our new high-limit slots and VIP Player Services window, all located conveniently on the third floor, our highly tailored VIP experience makes for an exceptional time at Bally’s Chicago Casino.”
Superstar and Legend players must earn at least 15,000 Bally’s Rewards points through slot machine or table game play solely at the Chicago casino to achieve their status, according to records cited by NWI.com.
Bally’s has also recently unveiled new high-limit slot machines at its Chicago casino featuring popular titles like Dollar Storm, Dragon Cash, and Lightning Cash.
Bally’s opened the temporary casino in November 2023, where it houses 750 slot machines and 50 table games. The permanent Bally’s Chicago will be at the 30-acre Chicago Tribune Publishing Center at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and Halsted Street. The permanent resort will feature 3,400 slots, 170 table games, and 10 food and beverage venues. The opening is planned for 2026.
In July, Bally’s was the second-most visited Illinois casino. However, its monthly revenue ranked fourth behind competing casinos in Des Plaines, Elgin, and Joliet, according to the Illinois Gaming Board.
