MGM Grand's Race & Sports Book is a state-of-the-art 5,300-square-foot betting arena, located near the action of the high-energy Studio 54, the heart of one of MGM Grand's most dynamic neighborhoods. Adjacent to our Stage Deli, we offer seating for 104 guests, with thirty-six 60-inch plasma televisions and twenty-four 42-inch plasmas. These include four 42-inch plasmas located on the posterior wall and two 42-inch plasmas inside the Race & Sports Turf Bar. Also featured are six electronic display boards and 17 separate race and sports betting counters.
MGM Grand's Race & Sports Book is capable of receiving more than 30 channels of simultaneous action from all major international athletic and racing events, including the four major sports along with boxing, soccer and championship golf. Additionally, 49 main floor seats are outfitted with individual 15-inch color televisions, allowing guests to personally access a network of racing and sporting events from around the globe. There is complimentary beverage service for Race Book guests.
And to top it all off, this is the first Race and Sports book in the industry to offer “Skyboxes” for its guests. These four Skyboxes, ranging in size from 300 - 325 square feet, are each equipped with the latest technology available, including 42-inch plasma televisions, surround-sound audio and CD systems. Our Skyboxes offer a special second-level view and can comfortably host eight to 10 guests.
“MGM Grand's new Race & Sports Book demonstrates our ability to offer another exciting gaming option for our guests,” said Gamal Aziz, president of MGM Grand. “Sports fans have an opportunity to place wagers on their favorite team or event in a highly energized environment.”
