The theater has four levels and can fit up to 3,000 guests when the seats are fully retracted on the first level and 2,500 with reserved seating. The Yaamava’ Theater opened with a special performance by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. In April, Yaamava’ Resort & Casino in Highland joined the other Southern California casinos by constructing an entertainment venues. Reservations can be made by visiting a kiosk directly in front of The Marketplace. The restaurant is closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Guests visiting The Marketplace can choose from seven different eateries such as Pescato (seafood), Pork & Waffles (BBQ and Southern comfort food), Sukiru (Pan-Asian), Prime Cuts (part steakhouse and part Brazilian Churrascaria) and Sweet Things (desserts). The Marketplace, by Fabio Viviani, replaced the Potrero Canyon Buffet with a concept similar to a food hall that is all-you-can-eat. In May, Morongo Casino Resort & Spa was the first to replace a buffet space with a celebrity kitchen concept at a Southern California casino. It also has six 65-inch high definition TVs for showing sports and is open 24 hours. It now features games such as Texas Hold ’em and Omaha Hold ’em. Previously, the poker room was located at Morongo Casino Resort & Spa.

In addition to the new bingo hall, Casino Morongo also added a new poker room. On Sundays, doors open at 11 a.m., with the first game starting at 2 p.m., and closes at 5 p.m. Wednesday-Saturday, with the first game starting at 6 p.m., and closes at 9 p.m. The refreshed space features 250 seats and electronic playing tablets. The old bingo hall was among those that shuttered because of the coronavirus pandemic. In April, Casino Morongo, located next door to Morongo Casino Resort & Spa in Cabazon, reopened its bingo hall in a new room located near the back of the casino. Julieta Venegas, Rob Zombie and more are headed to Southern California casinos next week
