A stage in the casino hosts free music acts on weekend evenings.

Fitzgeralds casino has a light Irish theme (scattered Irish decorations). It is a lively place, although it is aging and well-worn in some areas.
There is plenty of action for low to medium rollers (low limit black jack, nickel and penny slots, etc.).
There are two levels. The lower level is crowded with slot machines and table
games, with a bar and stage towards the rear. There is free live music many nights. The second floor is a somewhat less hectic maze of slot machines,
and it is also home to the restaurants and buffet.
There are over 1,300 slot machines and video poker stations, and approximately 30 table games (black jack, roulette, 20x odds craps,
3 Card Poker, Let It Ride, and some others).
Riverview Buffet - all you can eat smorgasboard. Breakfast is usually very inexpensive.
Don B's Steakhouse - casual fine dining. Entrees include steak, chicken, pork, and seafood (most in the $22 to $30 range). Open for dinner.
Players Snack Bar - grab some sliders or other quick bites.
ENTERTAINMENT, RECREATION, SHOPPING
Stage Bar - There is free music Wednesday through Sunday nights here (located at the rear of the casino, 1st floor).
Gift Shop - The shop has many gift items as well as the usual sundries. This is one of the most fairly-priced gift
shops of any casino I have ever visited. For example, where other places might charge $3 or even $4 for a bottle of orange juice, at Fitzgeralds
it only cost $1.
Meetings - Fitzgeralds has several banquet rooms, the largest of which can accomodate nearly 650 people.
