The Cordish Companies also developed two casino properties for the Seminole Tribe in Florida, the Seminole Hard Rock Casino Hollywood and the Seminole Hard Rock Casino Tampa.

The Cordish Companies’ flagship property is Live! Casino is in Maryland. The company operates in Philadelphia as Stadium Casino LLC. The Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia is owned by the Maryland-based developer Cordish Companies, which already has several Live! Casino resorts around the mid-Atlantic region. The opening will be the catalyst for the launch of a Live!-partnered FanDuel sportsbook and the PlayLive online casino, built on a proprietary platform from GAN.
Live! Rewards Club members will have special preview access beginning January 19. After years of legal complications, the official grand opening of the new Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia has finally been announced for February 11, 2021.
