Circa Resort & Casino hosting second annual Slotapalooza event with $15,000 prize pool

Circa Resort & Casino will host the second annual Slotapalooza event on July 18, dubbed as the “world’s largest slot party,” featuring tournaments with a $15,000 prize pool, free play giveaways and evening activations. 

Throughout the event, gaming suppliers such as International Game Technology (IGT), American Gaming Systems (AGS), Konami, Interblock, Bluberi and Light & Wonder will each provide $25 free play vouchers for up to 200 participants.

Bluberi, IGT, Interblock and Light & Wonder will also offer a $5,000 giveaway prize, while early registration for the slot tournament is currently available at Circa Resort & Casino. 

Aristocrat Gaming is also set to take part in the slot tournament activations, offering $25 free play vouchers for up to 400 participants and a $10,000 giveaway prize. 

“After the incredible energy and overwhelming response to the debut of Slotapalooza, we knew we had to bring it back for year two,” Circa Resort & Casino CEO Derek Stevens said. 

“This isn’t just a return of the world’s largest slot party – it’s a full-scale celebration of everything that makes the casino floor at Circa come alive.”

As part of the Slotapalooza tournament, the contestant who wins the most slot credit during a two-minute play session will take home an authentic Game King Poker machine, while the remaining top-50 will split $15,000 in free play rewards.

Circa Resort & Casino will also provide an open bar and Hot Seats Free Play Giveaway at the conclusion of Slotapalooza, as guests will be randomly selected to win slot free play prizes.

Circa Resort & Casino’s latest activation could be yet another initiative to increase visitation to the Las Vegas area, following its At Par Canadian currency parity program launched on January 22. 

Circa Resort & Casino, the D Las Vegas and Golden Gate Hotel & Casino, all of which are owned by Stevens, managed to report increases in Canadian visitation since launching the program. 

The Downtown Las Vegas properties produced over 15,000 visitors from Canada since the program’s initial launch, resulting in more than 2,700 hotel room bookings.
