Blue Chip Expansion Update
Once complete, the $130 million expansion of Blue Chip® Casino Hotel will turn the property into an all-encompassing casino entertainment destination. But business travelers will have a reason to make their way to Michigan City as well, as a new convention center opens its doors at Blue Chip® in early 2009.
Blue Chip® Casino Hotel’s 20,000-square-foot convention center, slated to open for bookings in early 2009, will offer a wealth of entertainment and business options to area residents. One of the largest such facilities in Northwest Indiana, this multi-function space will be able to accommodate not only conventions and trade shows, but also stage productions, concerts, boat and vehicle exhibitions, weddings and other special events. Combined with the 5,500-square-foot ballroom and three meeting and function rooms at the current facility, Blue Chip® will offer approximately 30,000 square feet of convention and entertainment space, in all.
The expansion project also includes a 22-story, 302-room hotel tower, spa and fitness center and restaurant/nightclub. For regional theatre productions and concerts, Blue Chip’s entertainment center will include a sizeable 2,000-square-foot stage with a 46-foot proscenium in its 15,000-square-foot ballroom, which will seat 1,300 people theatre-style. For conventions and exhibitions, the ceilings in the main ballroom, which will measure up to 26-feet high, will accommodate most large-scale displays.
Although the main ballroom at the convention center can seat up to 1,000 guests for a sit-down dinner, the room can be split into six breakout rooms. These rooms, along with four other meeting/function rooms at the center, will range in size from 850 to 2750 square feet.
