Hard Rock Casino Tejon Opens November 13 with 2,000+ Slots in California

The Hard Rock Casino Tejon is set to open on November 13 near Bakersfield, California, marking a $600 million project developed in partnership with the Tejon Indian Tribe. The casino will feature 150,000 square feet of gaming space, including more than 2,000 slot machines, over 50 live table games, and VIP rooms for blackjack and baccarat, alongside multiple dining options such as the Hard Rock Cafe and Deep Cut Steaks and Seafood. The project has created thousands of construction jobs and is expected to provide around 1,000 permanent positions, contributing significantly to local economic growth and community development. Entertainment will be a central component, with plans for music acts and special events, as well as the future addition of a 400-room hotel and a 2,800-seat Hard Rock Live event center. The partnership between Hard Rock International and the Tejon Tribe has been highlighted as key to the project's success and represents a celebration of tribal heritage and resilience. The casino aims to become a major entertainment and cultural hub in Kern County, blending world-class hospitality with local cultural identity.
