Regulator signs off on temporary Rockford casino. Hard Rock Casino Rockton is to be built less than a mile away. It is expected to premiere in the latter half of 2023.

Tom McNamara is the mayor of Rockford, 90 miles west of Chicago. He is proud that his community's temporary casino will be built in the summer of 2019. It will feature a sportsbook, a 110-foot sign themed around Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen's guitar and a temporary Hard Rock casino.

Illinois State Senator Dave Syverson represents the district that is to host the coming Hard Rock Casino Rockford. Syerson is 'very excited' that the casino project has been given the green light.
