Welcome to Jackpot Valley TM where fun, excitement and winning is happening every day. It’s the Home of the Jackpot Celebration TM with music and lights. Located right next to Westgate, Desert Diamond Casino West Valley continues the party after a big game, before and after a concert, or actually, anytime! Desert Diamond Casino West Valley, located at 91st and Northern Avenues near Glendale, celebrated its fourth anniversary in the Valley on Dec. A major new expansion with a larger gaming floor.

Phoenix's West Valley is now home to a casino that offers poker and blackjack tables, more than 1,000 slot machines and live bingo.

The Tohono O'odham Nation's 1.2 million-square-foot Desert Diamond Casino West Valley opened Feb. 19 after more than two years of construction. It replaced the nearby interim casino, which opened in 2015 and offered slot machines.

Beyond games, Desert Diamond offers 10 options for food and drink, including a buffet, steakhouse and two-story bar in the middle of the action of the 24-hour casino. Expansion plans include a hotel, spa and convention center.

Here's what you'll find at the Desert Diamond Casino West Valley.

Poker, table games, slots

Unlike the interim location, the casino's Class III status, defined as 'full 'Las Vegas style' casino gaming' by the Arizona Department of Gaming, means enthusiasts will find card tables as well as machines.

There are 36 poker tables, 48 blackjack tables, 1,136 slot machines and live bingo.

Evening bingo sessions take place seven days a week, with doors opening at 3:30 p.m. and warm-ups starting at 6 p.m. Buy-ins begin at $20 for paper and $35 for electronic bingo. Payouts range from $250 to $1,000, going up to $10,000 for special games.

Desert Diamond's non-smoking poker room is described as 'Arizona’s newest, most spacious and luxurious poker room with 36 tables and 27 big screen televisions,' according to its website. Patrons can charge their phones at each table and order food and drinks. There also is a complimentary soda fountain.
