Local residents will benefit from thousands of good paying jobs, and a revitalized infrastructure that strengthens neighborhoods and supports growth.
Let’s bring the casino – and the benefits – home.
Let’s put Fort Wayne First.
A world-class destination could be coming to Northeast Indiana, and Fort Wayne has an incredible opportunity to be the first to welcome it.
A casino in Allen County would mean more than just gaming to our community; it would mean good paying jobs and small business partnerships. Significant tax revenue for neighborhood improvements, safety, and parks. And a boost in tourism and hospitality.
Should the casino go to another area, or to tribal land, those benefits would go with it. Multiple communities will be competing for this opportunity, but Fort Wayne is uniquely positioned to ensure that the economic growth, community investments and new jobs stay here. Together, we can turn this vision into a reality.
Growth will happen either way. Let’s make sure it happens here, in Fort Wayne, first!
It’s time to put Fort Wayne First.

It’s time to put Fort Wayne First.
How could this impact our community?
The economic impact of a casino in Fort Wayne will extend far beyond the initial $500+ million investment. It would bring lasting prosperity for our city and the entire region. Fort Wayne First is more than a new destination; it’s a commitment to integrity, responsibility, and community well-being. We’re leading with responsible gaming practices and programs that support financial stability, mental health, addiction recovery, and other essential social services. Our goal is to build an entertainment model Allen County can be proud of; one where opportunity, enjoyment, and responsibility come together to create lasting benefits for the entire community.
