Casino to Move to 24-Hour Operations on Dec. 27

The Maryland Live! Casino at Arundel Mills will introduce 24-hour operations on Dec. 27, taking advantage of new rules passed by voters last month.

Pending regulatory approval, the casino will be open round-the-clock, seven days a week. Meanwhile, Maryland Live! continues to work toward adding live table games sometime next year, and will launch a free dealer school in cooperation with Anne Arundel County Community College on Jan. 7.

The 24-hour gambling and 150 live table games are expected to require about 1,200 new workers, including 800 dealers.

Maryland Live! Currently operates 4,750 slot machines, though it may reduce that number once live table games are in place.

Does the introduction of 24-hour gambling mean much to you?
