JCM Global Lights the Stage in Oklahoma
US - Penn rebrands Greektown Casino Penn National Gaming has confirmed that Greektown Casino-Hotel, which operates a 100,000sq.ft gaming, entertainment, and dining destination along with a 400-room, 30-storey hotel in downtown Detroit, is expected to be renamed Hollywood Casino at Greektown. In addition to a new name, the property will undergo several changes and additions to the look, feel, and experience of the destination.
Three years ago, Penn National acquired Greektown from Dan Gilbert’s Jack Entertainment for some $300 million. The Detroit location will be the 43rd Hollywood Casino, which has operations in 19 states, including Toledo.
“Becoming Hollywood Casino at Greektown will offer our guests the best of both worlds — we’re keeping all of the unique, neighborhood charm that has defined Greektown since we opened our doors, while adding several new amenities that come with being a part of Penn National’s flagship brand family,” said John Drake, GM of Hollywood Casino at Greektown.
Additional highlights of the rebranding of Greektown Casino-Hotel to Hollywood Casino at Greektown include welcoming overnight guests with a recently unveiled $30m renovation of its 1,200 square foot hotel lobby, complete with new intimate cocktail bar and a total redesign of all 400 of its guestrooms and suites, which is expected to be completed in the coming months. All the property’s carpets, hallways, elevator vestibules, and other common areas have received a floor-to-ceiling refresh, and the facility has further underscored guest comfort and safety with the HVAC system.

JCM Global utilises 30 suspended video cubes to create unique experience at Grand Casino Hotel & Resort, Oklahoma.
JCM Global has installed 30 DSS CUBES from its Digital Signage Solutions collection at Grand Casino Hotel & Resort. Te three-dimensional LED video cubes feature flowing video that’s streamed in synchronisation to link together the hotel and casino sections of the location.
Tis is JCM’s second DSS installation at Grand Casino and first CUBES installation in the state. In December, JCM installed a 10mm Mitsubishi NXL Series double-sided digital sign that measures nearly 40 feet wide and 20 feet tall on both sides.
JCM’s DSS CUBES are suspended above the hallway connecting the resort’s hotel and casino. Te 120-foot-long expanse serves as a gateway for guests from the casino to explore the property’s other amenities in the hotel and hospitality areas, and the CUBES act as an inviting guide between the two different parts of the Oklahoma operation.

Te Tribal Council at the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, based in North Carolina, has approved plans to build two new out-of- state casinos. Te ‘new business and investment opportunity’ has been called ‘Project Toroughbred’ and will see the tribe invest $25m for a share of 44 per cent in commercial gaming opportunities. Cory Blankenship, EBCI Secretary of Finance and a board member of EBCI Holdings, said: “It allows us to go into a new state with a gaming property under a partnership agreement so the tribe’s not on the hook 100 per cent. We will actually have a 44 per cent equity stake. We’re not the only ones seeking this opportunity, but it appears that we are in the lead because of the reputation of the Eastern Band and because we have a 30- year track record of being responsible in this industry. I think that we’ve got a really good shot at this, and it is time- sensitive.”
