RCI Announces Opening of Rick’s Cabaret & Steakhouse in Historic Central City, CO

CENTRAL CITY, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RICK) proudly announces the opening tonight at 6 p.m. of Rick’s Cabaret & Steakhouse in the heart of Central City’s celebrated historic district. The three-story venue brings a new era of Las Vegas-style nightlife and fine dining to the Central City-Black Hawk gaming area.

The newly restored building at 130 Main Street, within the federally designated Central City-Black Hawk Historic District, has been carefully renovated to honor its legacy as part of the “Richest Square Mile on Earth.” Central City was a pivotal hub during the Pike’s Peak Gold Rush and is a testament to Colorado’s vibrant mining history.

Rick’s opening comes just in time for Saturday, June 28’s Central City Stills in the Hills festival, which celebrates the end of prohibition, in the afternoon, and the season opening of the Central City Opera, one of the oldest in the country, at night with The Barber of Seville.

Rooted in Tradition, Ready for the Future

“Rick’s Cabaret & Steakhouse marks a significant addition to Central City’s revitalized Main Street, offering both locals and visitors a premier destination for nightlife, dining, and celebration in a setting rich with history and character,” said Eric Langan, President and CEO of RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc.

The new Rick’s features a high-end nightclub with music, beautiful entertainers, and an exciting atmosphere; Rick’s fine dining restaurant, serving prime steaks and gourmet cuisine; and a setting that blends historic elegance and modern luxury. The venue initially will be open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 6:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m., with steakhouse seating as late as 3:00 a.m.

“Our goal is to honor the area’s unique heritage while introducing a new level of entertainment and dining, enhancing the appeal of local gaming venues,” Langan said. “We look forward to welcoming guests from Denver and beyond. Join us tonight and become part of Central City’s next great chapter—where history, hospitality, and excitement meet.”
