Concerts, comedy return to new Legends event center

Legends Casino Hotel is swinging wide its doors to welcome back comedy and concerts after a six-year hiatus at its new event center.

With the completion of the 1,720-seat event center in Toppenish earlier this year, the Legends marketing and events team spent 2018 outfitting the new facility with sound systems, seating and ticketing to accommodate headlining acts.

“When we opened the hotel in early 2017, we shared that it was the first significant step in our overall renovation and expansion plan,” said Letisha Peterson, general manager, in a news release. “However, the question everyone wanted answered—including our community—was a timeline for a return of concerts and comedy to Legends. We’re very excited to fulfill one of the most significant pieces of our plan—a return to hosting concerts and comedy shows—just in time for the holidays.”

Tickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster for comedian Bill Engvall on Nov. 30 and country band Wynonna Judd & the Big Noise on Dec. 14. The venue will offer four tiers of pricing.

In 2019, the event center will continue to host concerts and comedy shows beginning in February amid the regional conferences hosted through the hotel.

Because the casino and hotel are on the Yakama Nation reservation, no alcohol is served.

The $90 million Legends campus expansion also included a new six-story, 200-room hotel, enlarging the casino’s gaming floor by more than 50,000 square feet and adding more seats at the buffet.

About 7,000 people hop aboard free shuttle buses in the Tri-Cities to travel to Legends Casino each year.
