Las Vegas Casino to Give Away $400,000 House in Drawing

The Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas has announced the "Win a House" promotion, which starts in November and ends with a grand finale in March 2027. The total value of the promotion is $500,000. The main prize is a brand-new home worth about $400,000, built by Lennar in the Las Vegas Valley.

Rio Rewards members can take part in the drawing. To enter, participants must be at least 21 years old, have a Rio Rewards account, and show a valid government-issued ID. Each member receives one entry, which they must activate at the promotion kiosk on the drawing day between 3:00 a.m. and 5:45 p.m.

Drawings will be held every two weeks at Lapa Lounge, with five winners each receiving $1,000 in free play. These drawings take place at 6:00 p.m. on November 14 and 28, December 12 and 26, January 9 and 23, and February 6 and 20. The final drawing will be held at 6:00 p.m. on March 6 at the Rio Event Stage. Four members will win free play prizes of $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, and $10,000. One person will receive the keys to the new home.

The Rio Hotel & Casino hosted the World Series of Poker from 2005 to 2021. Caesars sold the property in 2019 to Dreamscape Companies for $516 million. The new owner started a $350 million renovation. After the renovation, the casino floor features nearly 500 new slot machines, a William Hill sportsbook, and new table games. The recently opened Dragon Lair room occupies the former poker room space and is dedicated to Aristocrat Gaming's Dragon Link and Phoenix Link games.

Around the same time, a Las Vegas resident triggered the Grand jackpot on a Dragon Link machine at ARIA Resort & Casino on October 14, playing $50 rounds, and won $5,066,400.83. This marked the first time the full $5 million top prize had been won.
