New Hampshire Sportsbook Opens

New Hampshire’s first sports betting retail location has opened. The DraftKings Sportsbook at the Brook at Seabrook, approved to host sports betting by voters this year, allows wagering on professional and college sports.

To mark the opening, Governor Chris Sununu declared, “This retail sportsbook represents the next evolution for the New Hampshire Lottery and DraftKings, which have already established New Hampshire as the go-to destination for sports betting in the Northeast.”

The Brook is owned by Eureka Casino Resorts, which purchased it last year. Brook CEO Andre Carrier stated, “We built the Stadium at the Brook to be the best place to watch sports anywhere in New England.”
