History

edit

The casino was previously known as the Ho-Chunk Casino Hotel and Convention Center.[2][14] The name was changed to Ho-Chunk Gaming in 2010.[2] In 2016, the facility broke ground on a multi-million expansion project.[14][15][16][17]

The casino closed for over two months in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][18][19] It reopened in June 2020 with protocols for face masks, social distancing, and sanitization.[20]

In 2021, a technical issue forced all Ho-Chunk gaming centers to close for a weekend.[21][22][23] The official statement did not specify if it was an internal or external issue, but officials said they did not find evidence that anyone's personal information was at risk.[24]
