Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati’s president George Goldhoff told the Cincinnati Business Courier recently that at the time, the casino had to start the process of closing even earlier to make sure customers were gone by 10 p.m. In November 2020, for example, there was a statewide curfew which required the casino to close at 10 p.m.
When allowed to reopen, there were restrictions on alcohol sales and mandatory curfews. In Ohio, casinos were mandated to close from March 13, 2020, through June 19, 2020. George Goldhoff is president of the Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati, which is expected to be fully unveiled this summer.
