Dubbed the fastest moving ball sport in the world by Guinness World Records, Jai-Alai has been hosted for more than 60 years at The Casino @ Dania Beach. The dazzling display of skill and speed has been played in South Florida since 1924, when the first fronton opened in Hialeah. Jai-Alai originated as a handball game in the Basque area of Spain’s Pyrenees Mountains over four centuries ago, where games were played on Sundays and holidays in small villages at the local church, hence the name jai alai which means “merry festival” in Basque.
Modified Seating
Seating inside the Jai-Alai fronton at The Casino @ Dania Beach has been modified to account for 6-foot physical distancing between fans, reducing capacity from 400 to 75 guests. Additional self-betting stations have also been added.
