Hard Rock Casino Rockford is days from opening its first dedicated poker room.

A temporary casino, aka Hard Rock Opening Act, first opened in Rockford in November 2021, but it didn’t include a poker room. The temporary facility was built inside a former restaurant, so floor space was at a premium. As a consequence, there were no table games.

The permanent casino is scheduled to open at month’s end, so Hard Rock closed its temporary digs on Monday. When it opens the new facility, it will have a poker room for the first time.
