This renovation and reimagining brings over 50,000 total square
feet of reservable and rentable event space into the property’s
inventory, all under one roof. Rivers Casino opened in 2009 and
celebrates its 15th anniversary in August.
“With the stadiums and other nearby attractions on the North
Shore — not to mention our own full-service gaming floor, BetRivers
Sportsbook and The Landing Hotel — our events calendar fills up
quickly,” said Bud Green, general manager of Rivers Casino
Pittsburgh. “We’re happy to provide new spaces and more dates for
hosting conferences, weddings and special events.”
Bridges Ballroom
In response to ongoing demand for event space, Rivers has
unveiled the newly christened Bridges Ballroom, a 7,044-square-foot
second-floor venue overlooking the Ohio River. The all-new ballroom
offers a balcony and panoramic views of the riverfront, Mount
Washington and the iconic Fort Pitt and West End bridges.
Bridges Ballroom, like all special occasion spaces at Rivers
Casino Pittsburgh, comes with comprehensive in-house event planning
services. Of particular note, Rivers Casino’s executive chef and
expert team of cooks and servers will deliver a custom-curated menu
prepared on-site, accommodating everything from receptions to
plated dinners, buffets and more.
Bridges Ballroom can be sectioned into three smaller spaces that
can be individually reserved: the 1,844-square-foot West End Room,
the 1,164-square-foot Fort Duquesne Room and the 4,036-square-foot
Fort Pitt Room.
Meeting/Breakout Rooms
Four new private meeting rooms also make their debut as part of
the Bridges Ballroom launch, including the 1,140-square-foot
Clemente Room, the 472-square-foot Warhol Room, the 470-square-foot
Carson Room and a 348-square-foot executive boardroom. These
meeting rooms are available separately, combined or as prefunction
areas for Bridges Ballroom events.
The Event Center and Rivers Ballroom
Just down the promenade from Bridges Ballroom are two other
established venues, which are well known among concertgoers and
event planners alike: The Event Center and Rivers Ballroom.
The Event Center, which opened in 2019 with its vast
25,000-square-foot grand hall, is a Western Pennsylvania favorite
for both expos and ticketed shows. Boyz II Men; K.C. & The
Sunshine Band; Theresa Caputo, the “Long Island Medium”; and many
other headliners have performed multiple sold-out shows there.
Rivers Ballroom, which opened in 2011, also just got a makeover.
The casino’s 7,873-square-foot inaugural banquet space has been
refreshed and reappointed, with all-new carpet and finishings. It’s
comprised of three spaces: the 2,764-square-foot Allegheny Room,
the 2,533-square-foot Monongahela Room and the 2,576-square-foot
Ohio Room. They are available separately or rolled into one. Rivers
Ballroom offers a dedicated prefunction area, a balcony and
breathtaking city and river views.
Starbucks and Black Card Room
The recent renovations kicked off last fall with the opening of
a standalone, full-service Starbucks Coffee, located adjacent to
Rivers’ arrival elevators. Additionally, the ultraexclusive Black
Card Room, a dedicated lounge for Rush Rewards Players Club members
who achieve the highest-tier status, opened just off the gaming
floor at the end of last year.
