It will open in what was formerly Fairmount Park.

FanDuel has also opened a permanent sportsbook at Bally’s in Atlantic City.  They had been operating a temporary operation on the property since December.

The opening of these two new retail sportsbooks brings the FanDuel total up to 16 throughout the United States.

Illinois already ranks number 4 in the nation in terms of overall sports wagering handle after New Jersey, Nevada and Pennsylvania.

In December 2020, New Jersey posted a total sports betting handle of $996.3 million.
