ATLANTIC CITY — New Jersey Gov. Christie toured Revel the day after the soon-to-open mega-resort’s gaming license was approved Monday, March 26.
The $2.4 billion Revel Resort and Casino begins three test nights starting Wednesday, March 28, then opens this coming Monday, April 2, for an eight-week preview, and the complete resort will premiere on May 25 — the Friday before Memorial Day weekend.

The Governor shook hands with some of the 4,000 employees who have been hired to work at Revel, and was greeted by regional elected officials and members of the CRDA and other local agencies before addressing the media.
“The completion of Revel and its opening is a turning point for Atlantic City and a clear sign that people once again have faith in the city’s ability to come back and be successful,” said Christie.
