Caesars inks multi-year partnership with New York Mets
Partnership includes new 13,000 sq ft sportsbook lounge at Citi Field
Caesars Entertainment has put pen to paper on a multi-year partnership with the New York Mets.
The deal sees Caesars Sportsbook become an official sports betting partner of the MLB team.
This includes a variety of VIP experiences and hospitality assets for members of Caesars loyalty programme with plans to open a new sportsbook lounge at Citi Field.
The 13,000 sq ft space will incorporate a multi-level dining room and outdoor patio seating with views over left field.
Its opening is slated to coincide with the beginning of the 2022 MLB season.
The partnership also includes access to official licensed Mets logos and marks, in-game signage and exclusive broadcast and digital content.
Chris Holdren, co-president of Caesars Digital, said: “New York is a key state for us following the successful launch of our Caesars Sportsbook app in January.
“The Mets’ fanbase is one of the most loyal in baseball and this partnership offers us the chance to treat those passionate fans like Caesars. We look forward to opening our space at Citi Field during an exciting time for the franchise,” he added.
The Mets deal follows Caesars’ partnership with NBA franchise the Cleveland Cavaliers which was penned in February.
