The Nash to Celebrate its Record-Breaking First Year

Five-day celebration to feature special promotions, merch and other festivities

Nashua, NH - The Nash Casino, New Hampshire’s largest charitable gaming venue, will celebrate its first birthday during the week of March 1, with five days of festivities featuring an array of special gaming promotions, exclusive merchandise and, of course, cake. The Nash opened on March 4, 2025, and quickly established itself as a leading revenue generator for the state and the top supporter of nonprofits, contributing nearly $15.5 million to 94 charitable partners over the course of the year. Patrons of The Nash have also shared in the success, pocketing $32 million in jackpot winnings over the past 12 months, including what are believed to be the largest progressive jackpot ($233,490.95) and the largest HHR machine jackpot ($84,950) in state history.

“Time flies when you’re having fun and we’ve had a lot of it,” said Eric Althaus, General Manager of The Nash Casino. “Seeing the excitement on patrons’ faces when they win big or watch their favorite team score on the Stadium Social big screen, and witnessing the wide smiles of our nonprofit partners when they receive their checks is why we love what we do. We are grateful to our patrons, our charitable partners and the greater Nashua community for making our first year a success, and we invite you to indulge in a celebratory slice of cake before it’s gone.” 

From Sunday, March 1 to Tuesday, March 3, Club Nash members can receive a free, birthday-themed T-shirt featuring the slogan “Cheers to 1 Year” from an onsite promotional kiosk, while supplies last.

On Wednesday, March 4, between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., The Nash will award $10 in free play credits to all Club Nash members who are actively playing their favorite machine with their Club Nash card inserted. Simultaneously, at 5 p.m., all patrons are welcome to enjoy a slice of birthday cake.

Festivities will conclude on Thursday, March 5, with Nash-branded baseball jerseys featured as a redeemable award for Club Nash members who accumulate 50 tier points.

In its first year of operating, The Nash has earned recognition within the gaming industry, receiving multiple honors for both its gaming excellence and patron experience. In Aug. 2025, The Nash earned first place in a multitude of Casino Player Magazine’s Best of Gaming Awards categories, including “Best Dealers,” “Casino Where You Feel Luckiest,” and “Best Blackjack.” In Nov. 2025, The Nash was recognized as the first-place winner of Casino Player Magazine’s Strictly Slots Awards “Casino Where You Feel Luckiest,” “Friendliest Casino,” “Best Nickel Slots” and “Best Slot Club Promotions” award categories.
