Earlier this year, the National Football League selected Caesars Entertainment as the first-ever Official Casino Sponsor of the NFL. This multi-year sponsorship allows Caesars to provide unique experiences for NFL fans by using its casino properties, celebrity chefs, premier music artists and a wide range of entertainment elements. Caesars will also activate at key NFL events like the Super Bowl and NFL Draft. Seven NFL Clubs have partnerships with Caesars Entertainment, including the Oakland Raiders as they move to Las Vegas in 2020.
Caesars, alongside other properties on the world-famous Las Vegas Strip, will host elements of the 2020 Draft in coordination with the City of Las Vegas to help create this historic event.
The draft will be shown at The LINQ Hotel & Casino, which boasts the Strip’s highest resolution LED video wall. For further information about the LINQ Hotel & Casino’s draft party on Thursday, April 25, visit the website.
