The mayor has not opined this summer, at least publicly, on if he believes Bally’s will open the casino in the first quarter of 2027.

“We appreciate Bally’s partnership and the thousands of construction workers helping bring Bally’s Chicago Casino to life – a major investment in our city’s future,” Johnson wrote in a social media post on X.
