To reach out, Ilani has started work on its advertising campaign for print, television and on the Web. “We have the opportunity to work with lots of business groups.” “Really it is one of the largest venues of its kind in the area,” Fox-LaRose said.

The space is fully carpeted, capable of hosting luncheon or dinner events and associated catering, wired for sound and also has an elevated stage for entertainment and concerts. The center can fit 2,500 guests in a conference, or about 800 guests if used as banquet space. “We also have a marketing team that’s been working for several months on messaging.” “We are recruiting our sales team now,” Fox-LaRose said. And marketing staff has already started working on getting the word out to the broader community, said Kara Fox-LaRose, president and general manager of Ilani. The center, which includes high ceilings, flexible air walls, a separate concourse for entry and a host of other amenities, could be an ideal draw for business conferences. The Ridgefield facility plans to launch its 22,000-square-foot Event Center on April 1, close to the one-year anniversary of the casino opening. The Cowlitz Tribe was far from finished with the $510 million Ilani Casino Resort when it first opened the venue to visitors in April 2017 – and the newest part of the project could be a boon to Clark County’s business sector. The new Event Center at Ilani Casino Resort, which will officially launch on April 1, includes high ceilings, flexible air walls, a separate concourse for entry and more.
