Boyd Gaming Corporation is one of the nation’s leading casino entertainment companies. But they are so much more – a billion-dollar, publicly-traded company that retains the philosophy of a family-owned business, focused on creating long-term, sustainable growth for their shareholders. This philosophy defines and separates us from the competition, making us unique in their industry.
From their beginnings in the 1970s, they made a commitment to their guests, employees and communities to create a culture and an operating style built around that of a family-owned business. Even as a public company operating in a highly competitive industry, the Boyd Style of hospitality continues to define us.
They currently own and operate 22 gaming properties in eight states: Gold Coast, The Orleans, Sam’s Town, Suncoast, California, Fremont and Main Street Station in Las Vegas; Jokers Wild and Eldorado in Henderson, NV.; Blue Chip in Michigan City, IN.; Par-A-Dice in East Peoria, IL.; Diamond Jo Dubuque in Dubuque, IA, Diamond Jo; Worth in Northwood, IA; Kansas Star in Mulvane, KS; Sam’s Town in Tunica, MS.; IP Biloxi in Biloxi, MS; Amelia Belle in Amelia, LA; Treasure Chest in Kenner, LA.; Delta Downs in Vinton, LA.; Evangeline Downs in Opelousas, LA; Sam’s Town in Shreveport, LA.; and Borgata in Atlantic City, NJ.
