About Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort
Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort is being developed by the Catawba Nation at a 17-acre site at 538 Kings Mountain Blvd. in Kings Mountain, N.C. The site is near Interstate 85 and about 35 miles west of Charlotte. A temporary “pre-launch” gaming facility is planned to open this summer with 500 slot machines to provide an initial opportunity for patrons to game with limited food & beverage and other guest amenities. An introductory facility, part of the permanent casino, will follow with 1,300 slots. The total $273 million casino resort project is expected to create 2,600 permanent jobs at full buildout and thousands of construction jobs in the region. The Two Kings name celebrates the Catawba Nation’s history and hopeful future in their ancestral lands in North Carolina, paying tribute to the 18th century Catawba Chief King Hagler and the City of Kings Mountain.
