The event was previously set to be held at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center.

“We had an amazing opportunity to move to the Valley Forge Casino Resort, and we jumped on it,” Morey says. “We expect to win big with a full house of attendees and exhibitors, who will enjoy everything EIGC offers in one central hot spot — order-writing at the trade show, regionally relevant retail education conference sessions and an all-star concert Tuesday evening.”

In addition to offering slots and table games for gaming enthusiasts, the Valley Forge Casino Resort offers seven diverse on-site dining options, including celebrity chef Luke Palladino’s LP Steak, a newly renovated spa and fitness center, easy access from all major roads and free valet parking daily.

EIGC will take place Aug. 2-4, 2016, and will be specifically focused on the interests of Eastern IGC retailers.
