Penn National Gaming Celebrates Grand Opening of Hollywood Casino Morgantown

State-of-the-Art Facility Offers Guests Premier Gaming and Entertainment, Including Retail Barstool Sportsbook

Casino Features Cutting Edge Technology for a Cardless, Cashless, and Contactless Gaming Experience

Today marks the grand opening of Hollywood Casino Morgantown, the fourth gaming and entertainment facility in Pennsylvania by Penn National Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: PENN)(“Penn National” or the “Company”). The $111 million state-of-the-art casino is the Company’s 44th property in North America.

State gaming officials, legislators and area dignitaries, including Philadelphia Eagles legend Vince Papale, are joining Penn National Gaming team members for a ribbon-cutting ceremony this morning. Hollywood Casino Morgantown will then open to the public at 12:00PM and welcome thousands of guests to experience 750 of the newest slot machines, 30 table games, a retail Barstool Sportsbook, upscale casual dining and above all, premier guest service.

“We would like to officially welcome players and guests to Hollywood Casino Morgantown, our fourth property in the Commonwealth,” said Todd George, Executive Vice President of Operations for Penn National. “We’re thrilled to showcase this regional entertainment destination, offering premier gaming and dining in a modern atmosphere. In addition, we’re grateful for the support of our host community, Caernarvon Township, and to all of our local and state legislators and regional business leaders who helped make this day possible. We’re proud to be creating jobs and starting a new economic engine right here in Berks County.

“We’re also excited to outfit this casino with our innovative ‘3Cs’ technology, which provides for a cardless, cashless, contactless ‘mywallet’ experience. I would like to thank the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board for their support as well as our technology partners Everi Holdings and Acres Manufacturing. This next-level technology, which is in place at all four of our Pennsylvania casinos, further supports our omnichannel business approach in which we provide the best experiences whether people are playing at our properties or across our numerous online offerings,” added George.

The roughly 80,000 square foot gaming and entertainment facility employs approximately 375 people and generated over 275 construction jobs. Open 7 days a week and 24 hours a day on Friday and Saturday, the fun and excitement will continue 365 days a year.
