The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board renewed the Live! Casino Pittsburgh licence for five years after public hearings in 2025 and 2026 and multi-agency review. The casino has produced $647 million in gross revenue and $314.7 million in taxes since opening in November 2020. It operates 748 slots, 40 tables, a sportsbook, and employs 569 staff.

SCCG Take — This decision shows how structured public input and inter-agency checks support licence continuity in Pennsylvania. Operators facing renewal should document compliance and community ties with equal rigor.

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board has unanimously renewed the Category 4 casino licence of Stadium Casino Westmoreland RE, LLC, operator of Live! Casino Pittsburgh in Westmoreland County, for another five years. The board found that the operator met all requirements of its existing licence following a review that included public input and assessments from government officials, community groups, and multiple regulatory agencies, according to Yogonet International.

Renewal Process and Public Hearings

A public input hearing was held in June 2025. Casino personnel presented exhibits and testimony on facility operations since the prior renewal. Members of the public testified on the casino’s community impact.

The board evaluated information from local government officials, community groups, the Pennsylvania State Police, its Office of Enforcement Counsel, Bureau of Investigations and Enforcement, Office of Compulsive and Problem Gambling, and Bureau of Casino Compliance. A further public hearing took place in Harrisburg on October 14, 2026, allowing board members to question representatives of Stadium Casino Westmoreland RE, LLC before the vote.

Operational Performance Since 2020 Opening

Live! Casino Pittsburgh opened in November 2020. It has generated $647 million in gross revenue from retail slot machines, table games, and sports wagering. The casino has contributed $314.7 million in tax revenue to the Commonwealth.

The facility offers 748 slot machines, 40 table games, and a retail sportsbook. It employs 569 people. Additional details appear in a presentation posted on the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board’s website under the Board Meetings section for October 14.

This renewal reflects sustained adherence to Pennsylvania’s licensing standards through documented performance, regulatory coordination, and community accountability.
