Memorial Weekend 2025

Looking forward to the warmer weather? What typically comes to mind when you think of the unofficial start of summer? Here in Wisconsin, the unofficial start of summer begins with Memorial Day Weekend. From spending time on the lake, seeing a baseball game, and cooking outside, Memorial Day Weekend is full of fun outdoor activities. Wisconsin is known for having all the seasons wrapped up in one day, and if the weather has ruined your First Day Of Summer plans, or you don’t want to catch the house on fire in another BBQ mishap, check out Potawatomi Casino Hotel for fun and excitement.

Friday Night

Every Friday night at ElevenHundred Bar and Lounge, we have a DJ in-house ready to play all your favorite beats to get the night going. Being close to the action means that you can take a break from the dancing to grab a drink and play a few hands at your favorite card game, or spin a few reels on your favorite slot machines.

Have you checked out EZ Street? Located on the second floor, EZ Street is the new premier table games location for you and your crew. While you play, enjoy spiked slushies from our drink truck with flavors that include Brandy Old Fashioned, Simply Spiked Blueberry Lemonade, Rum Punch, and more! Check out the full Slushy menu here.

Saturday

Start your Saturday off right with a delicious breakfast buffet from Canal Street Café. Serving all of your favorite homemade meals for you to enjoy with your friends and family. What better way to enjoy breakfast than with a mimosa or a loaded Bloody Mary?

After breakfast, make sure to get your steps in and explore the casino floor to find your favorite slots. We have thousands of slot machines for you to choose to play on, from lock-it links to traditional penny slots and everything in between. You will have hours and hours of gaming fun on our floor. Looking for a specific slot machine? Ask one of our helpful slot attendants, and they will be able to show you where the machine lives on our gaming floor.

Take a much-needed and deserved lunch break after a few hours of gaming at any one of our delicious restaurants. Stop at the Marketplace to get a burger from Burger Co. or try a new bowl of ramen from Queen of Ramen. Be sure to check out our website before you go to see any upcoming deals and specials for Memorial Day Weekend.

Now, it’s time to get back into the action. Have you seen our second floor yet?! Take the escalators up to the second floor to see even more slot machines and table games, all just waiting for you to win on. What will you pick first? As the hours fly by, enjoy the exciting beats and sounds of the DJ at ElevenHundred Bar. If live bands are more your style, then catch dinner and a show at Rock & Brews. A live band plays every Saturday night on the Rock & Brews Stage. And the best part? The show is entirely free.

You must be tired from all the gaming and good food—why not rest and relax in one of our private, comfortable hotel rooms? Relax with us and awaken rejuvenated and ready for the day ahead! Book your stay here.

Sunday

Sunday is usually a day when people relax and catch up on housework. Not this weekend. Plan your Sunday to watch your favorite athletes compete and win! No matter the weather, the Potawatomi Sportsbook is your premier location for ALL of your sports entertainment needs. The best part? You can order delicious food to enjoy while enjoying the game. So leave the cooking to those other guys and visit the Sportsbook.

If you must venture out, then enjoy the outdoors near the lakefront by visiting the War Memorial Center. While you are there, enjoy a walk or bike to Bradford Beach, Lakefront State Park, or cruise along the Oak Leaf Trail, which connects trails throughout the city. There are also plenty of museums and activities to engage in while near the lakefront.

Be sure to return to the casino later that night for more fun and excitement. Check our website closer to Memorial Day for a full list of entertainment.
