Rosie's Gaming Emporium is set to open Friday, January 8.
The new gaming parlor is located at 18069 Triangle Shopping Plaza and is the first in Northern Virginia. The 19,000 square feet facility will accommodate up to 134 people on opening day, 30% fewer people than it would if Gov. Ralph Northam had not instituted capacity restrictions due to the coronavirus.
The parlor will open with 95 games, including pari-mutuel video slots. The outcomes of which are tied to some 90,000 records of previously-run horse races. Some are penny games with jackpots over $100,000.
