Churchill Downs Inc. (CDI) will expand its existing Casino Salem within The Mall at Rockingham Park in Salem, NH. The current 19,000-square-foot facility will be redeveloped as Rockingham Grand Casino, occupying 160,000 square feet across three floors of the largest mall in the state.
The new facility will feature 825 historical racing machines, 32 table games, 12 electronic table game seats, a 900-seat live entertainment venue, and several food and beverage concepts, including a center bar and full-service sports bar and restaurant. CDI received approval from the Salem Planning Board for its development plan in December 2025.
CDI plans to open Rockingham Grand Casino in mid-2027, with an expected capital investment of $180-200 million. “We look forward to contributing to New Hampshire’s charitable organizations while bringing outstanding entertainment experiences to our guests across the greater Boston region,” said Bill Carstanjen, CEO of CDI.
