Coushatta Casino Resort, Louisiana’s largest casino resort, will officially celebrate the grand opening of its new Legacy Tower with a ceremony on May 15, marking one of the most significant expansions in the resort’s 30-year history.
Hosted by the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, the event will bring together Tribal leadership, casino executives, development partners and regional officials to commemorate the opening of the new Legacy Tower, which adds 204 guest rooms, including 100 luxury suites, and brings the resort’s total inventory to more than 1,000 rooms.
The ceremony will take place inside the newly constructed lobby and will incorporate elements that reflect the Tribe’s culture, leadership and long-term vision for growth.
“This grand opening is a defining moment for Coushatta,” said Nate Tanner, General Manager of Coushatta Casino Resort. “Legacy Tower makes an immediate impression, from the scale of the tower itself to the unified lobby and arrival experience that brings the resort together in a new way. We are delivering a next-level experience for our guests while continuing to invest in our community, the Tribe and the future of this region.”
The expansion is part of Coushatta’s ongoing “Bigger, Better Coushatta” initiative, a multi-year investment focused on enhancing the guest experience while creating long-term economic impact. The project supports continued job creation and increased tourism across Southwest Louisiana and East Texas, reinforcing the resort’s role as a key economic driver in the region.
Additionally, the addition of Legacy Tower strengthens Coushatta’s ability to attract regional and destination visitors, particularly from Texas, while expanding capacity for gaming, entertainment and resort experiences.
The grand opening celebration will continue Saturday, May 16, with the $300,000 Legacy & Luxury Giveaway, offering guests the chance to win cars and cash prizes totaling more than a quarter of a million dollars.
