MGM Springfield reopened in July with 800 of 2,000 employees pre-pandemic. It has been restricted to operate at a third of capacity since then. Chris Kelley, president of the Northeastern Group, brought senior-level employees from Empire Casino to help MGM.

City Chophouse, and The Big Kitchen international food court will open for dining, but all the bars will remain closed. Food and beverage are also banned from the gaming floor.
