Live! Casino & Hotel Maryland, formerly Maryland Live! Casino, is a casino hotel in Hanover, Maryland, United States, adjacent to Arundel Mills Mall. It is owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by The Cordish Companies. It opened in 2012, and was the first "Live!"-branded casino developed by Cordish. [1] While Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood and Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa are older, they were not Live!-branded.
The casino has over 3,900 slot machines and electronic table games, 189 live table games, and 52 poker tables. There is parking for 5,000 vehicles in a six-story parking garage. [2] At 17 stories, the hotel is the tallest building in Anne Arundel County.
The casino opened its first phase on June 6, 2012, which included 3,200 slot machines and electronic table games. It was built on what was formerly mall parking lots. [3] The second phase opened in September 2012, bringing the total to 4,750 machines. [4]
In December 2012, Maryland Live! transitioned to being open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. In April 2013, Maryland Live! debuted 122 table games to complement its electronic games and slot machines. A 52-table poker room opened in August 2013.
A 310-room hotel and conference center opened on June 6, 2018, on a site adjacent to the casino building.
In December 2021, Cordish sold the land and buildings to Gaming and Leisure Properties (GLP) in a leaseback transaction for $1.14 billion in cash, stock, and assumed debt. [5] Cordish would pay $75 million of annual rent for the property. [5]
