Caesars Sportsbook expands access in Washington DC

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Just over three years after making history by opening the first sportsbook in a U.S. professional sports venue at Capital One Arena, Caesars Entertainment, Inc. announced that its flagship mobile sports wagering platform, Caesars Sportsbook, is expanding its reach across Washington, D.C. Starting today, sports fans 21 and older can download the Caesars Sportsbook app on iOS and Android, or access it via desktop, district-wide – except on federal lands and designated areas surrounding other professional sports venues.

“D.C. sports fans have always displayed an incredible passion for their teams,” said Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital. “Expanding access to our mobile sports betting app across the district will only enhance their fan experience, and we look forward to deepening the connection we’ve established with them since our historic opening in 2021. We’d like to thank Mayor Bowser, Chairman Mendelson, Councilmember McDuffie and the D.C. Council for their leadership on sports betting as well as the Office of Lottery and Gaming.”

Since 2021, Caesars Sportsbook has offered in-person sports betting at Capital One Arena through its landmark partnership with Monumental Sports & Entertainment (MSE), which opened a Caesars Sportsbook at Capital One Arena. The expansion of the Caesars Sportsbook mobile app in Washington, D.C., builds on the August 2022 platform upgrade that brought Caesars Sportsbook’s most advanced version of its sports wagering platform online to users in and around Capital One Arena. Caesars Sportsbook is the official sports betting partner of the Washington Capitals, Washington Wizards and Washington Mystics.

Starting today, eligible sports fans in Washington D.C. can download the Caesars Sportsbook app, register online, and deposit funds to take advantage of a special sign-up offer for first-time users.
