A new $600 million casino is opening this fall just south of Bakersfield that will provide entertainment for both sides of the Grapevine.

The Hard Rock Casino will open Nov. 13 with a 150,000-square-foot gaming floor and more than 2,000 slot machines, according to a news release.

About 15 miles south of Bakersfield, the Hard Rock will be the second-closest full-service casino to Los Angeles, the Tejon Indian Tribe said.

“The opening of Hard Rock Casino Tejon is not only a celebration of our Tribe’s heritage and resilience but also a bold step forward in creating opportunity and prosperity for future generations,” said Octavio Escobedo III, chairman of the tribe. “This project will bring thousands of jobs, fuel economic growth, and serve as a gathering place where culture, entertainment, and community come together.”

Along with slots and table games, the casino also has dining options, including the Hard Rock Cafe, Deep Cut Steak Seafood, and more.

Like other Hard Rock locations, the casino will also have an extensive collection of authentic music memorabilia. The location expects to employ about 1,000 people upon opening.

“It is an honor to lead this incredible project as we prepare to welcome guests in Mid-November,” said Chris Kelley, president of Hard Rock Casino Tejon. “Hard Rock Casino Tejon will combine the energy, flavor and excitement that our brand is known for with a uniquely local spirit that reflects the strength and heritage of the Tejon Indian Tribe.”
