Reno resorts bring savings to tournament bowlers with long-term partnership
February 17, 2025
ARLINGTON, Texas – The United States Bowling Congress has reached an agreement with Reno’s premier resort casinos – Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus – to serve as the presenting sponsors for the USBC Open and Women’s Championships when the tournaments visit Reno from 2026 to 2033.
As part of the agreement, the downtown properties also will serve as the hosting hotels for each event, giving bowlers the chance to save on expenses through special rates and benefits.
In addition, Silver Legacy will be the spot for bowlers to pick up all same-day brackets payouts for both the Open and Women’s Championships.
The Open Championships is scheduled to head to Reno in 2026, 2029 and 2032. The Women’s Championships will be making appearances in The Biggest Little City in the World in 2028 and 2033.
Each event will be contested at the famed National Bowling Stadium. The Taj Mahal of Tenpins also is located downtown and just a short walk from all three resorts.
“We are incredibly excited to be able to continue this wonderful partnership with the USBC for years to come,” said General Manager Mark Huse. “At the Eldorado, Circus Circus and Silver Legacy, we are proud to offer family-style service that makes our guests feel at home. Our goal is for the USBC bowlers to find a home away from home with us, only one block away from the National Bowling Stadium. Reno is a city with something for everyone, and we hope that our bowlers enjoy everything from world-class food and entertainment to our beautiful outdoors.”
With registration for the 2026 Open Championships – which currently is scheduled to run from March 14 to July 5 – set to open to the public on Thursday, Feb. 27 at 1 p.m. Eastern, the partnering resort casinos also will have several deals in place for those looking to secure their accommodations in Reno through MyBowlingVacation.com.
Eldorado and Silver Legacy will feature rates starting at $60 per night for bowlers at the 2026 Open Championships. Circus Circus will have rates starting at $49 per night.
Bowlers will be able to save on resort fees in 2026, too. The resort casinos will waive all resort fees for those who have booked their stay prior to Aug. 31, 2025. For reservations made after the deadline, bowlers will receive 50% off resort fees.
USBC members can take advantage of exclusive food and beverage discounts at all three resort casinos, as well as special deals at retail outlets and The Spa at Silver Legacy.
There also will be exclusive packages available for coordinators in the Captain’s Club, based on the total number of room nights booked for their group.
“We’ve always had a great relationship with the teams at Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus, and they are rolling out the red carpet for the bowlers with these great promotions,” USBC Executive Director Chad Murphy said. “This partnership will allow us to continue to build for the future of our Championship Tournaments and give the bowlers an incredible experience on and off the lanes.”
Reno has hosted the Open Championships on 14 occasions, with the most recent appearance taking place in 2023. The Women’s Championships has been held in Washoe County a total of 13 times, including in 2024.
