Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club is set to make a comeback in 2025 with a new twist – sports betting integrated into the club. The announcement was made during a preview event at Fanatics Fest NYC, where celebrities and sports legends got a first look at the reimagined sports-themed lounge. This new iteration of the 40/40 Club will feature a Fanatics Sportsbook, allowing guests to place live bets while watching sporting events at the venue.
The 40/40 Club, originally opened in 2003 in New York City, quickly became a popular spot for celebrities and sports enthusiasts alike. With locations in Atlantic City, Las Vegas, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, it was a go-to destination for those looking to enjoy great food, drinks, and sports in a luxurious setting. The flagship location, frequented by the likes of Jay-Z, Beyoncé, LeBron James, Kanye West, and Memphis Bleek, closed its doors in 2023 but is now set to reopen in 2025 with a new and exciting addition – sports betting.
This new feature will undoubtedly set the 40/40 Club apart from other sports bars and lounges, offering guests a unique and immersive experience. With the integration of Fanatics Sportsbook, guests can now enjoy the thrill of placing bets on their favorite teams and athletes while enjoying the club’s upscale atmosphere. This move also reflects a growing trend in the sports and entertainment industry, as more venues look to incorporate sports betting into their offerings to attract a wider audience and enhance the overall experience for guests.
The preview event at Fanatics Fest NYC gave attendees a taste of what to expect from the reimagined 40/40 Club, with celebrities like Tom Brady, Quavo, Travis Scott, Carmelo Anthony, and Taylor Rooks in attendance. The club’s return is highly anticipated, and fans can look forward to another era of luxury, entertainment, and sports excitement. As Jay-Z continues to push boundaries and innovate in the entertainment industry, the reopening of the 40/40 Club with integrated sports betting promises to be a game-changer in the world of sports bars and lounges.
