Catawba Two Kings Casino added about 135 new positions to support the new table games, including dealers, supervisors, and managers. The casino now has more than 400 team members.
The casino is in a temporary structure in Kings Mountain while the Catawba Nation builds an expansive $700 million resort. Their new facility is expected to open in early 2026.
Until the project is completed, Catawba Nation Chief Brian Harris says they’re still investing in expanding the experience in the temporary building.
“While we are thrilled that construction is underway on our major casino resort, we are continuing to invest in our current gaming facility to broaden its appeal to residents and visitors to the greater Charlotte area and South Carolina,” Harris said in a statement.
“We anticipate the live table games will be very popular and give people who have not been to the casino a great reason to visit.”

Moreover, the casino resort project is expected to create 2,000 permanent jobs and construction jobs in the region.
The temporary establishment first opened on July 1, 2021, with 500 slot machines. The casino expanded to 1,000 slot machines in December 2021, and added a retail sportsbook, food truck, and dining area in September 2022.
Earlier this month, Catawba Two Kings Casino added 64 slot machines, bringing the total for slots, seats, and electronic table games to 1,064.
The Two Kings name celebrates the Catawba Nation’s rich history and bright future in their ancestral lands in North Carolina, paying tribute to the 18th century Catawba Chief King Hagler and the City of Kings.
