History

Legends, which opened in 2008, was the 2008–2009 title sponsor of the PGA Tour’s Reno-Tahoe Open at Montrêux Golf & County Club. Title sponsorship was dropped for the 2010 tournament.

Legends' master plan include plans for an upscale casino resort, a 6,500-seat arena, entertainment venues (including a megaplex with 13 screens plus an IMAX screen) and additional restaurants and shopping. Throughout the shopping center there are plaques and sculptures to commemorate individuals throughout Nevada's history. The IMAX (the only IMAX in the Reno area) is built at the Legends Outlets Mall as of January 2014.

Legends Bay Casino

In 2010, Olympia Gaming won approval to develop a new hotel-casino, to be called Legends Bay Casino-Resort. While the hotel-casino had been part of the original plans for the location, after the 2008 recession, the casino was put on hold.[2] A permit was approved to build Legends Bay Casino in May 2020, but Olympia Gaming said they were holding off on construction due to the pandemic and state of the gaming market.[3] Olympia Gaming announced in March 2021 that it was breaking ground on the casino, to be named Legends Bay Casino. The facility is designed to be 80,000 square feet with a casino, bars, restaurants, and a sportsbook. On the other side of the property is the Galaxy Theater, and on the other side are Hampton Inn and Suites and Residence Inn hotels. Opening date is expected for the summer of 2022.[4] The casino is the first to be built in the Reno-Sparks metropolitan area since 1995.[5] It will also have valet parking and both table games and slot machines.[6]
