INDIO, CA - February 9, 2026 - Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, a cornerstone of the Coachella Valley's entertainment and hospitality landscape, is doubling down on its commitment to local workforce development with two comprehensive career expos scheduled for February 2026. The events, designed to attract a wide range of skilled applicants, signal a period of continued growth and investment in the resort's future.

The first expo, set for Wednesday, February 12th, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, will specifically target individuals seeking seasonal employment opportunities. As the peak season for tourism and entertainment in the Coachella Valley approaches, Fantasy Springs anticipates a significant demand for temporary staff across various departments. This includes roles in food and beverage, hospitality, security, and event support. The seasonal positions offer a valuable entry point for those seeking to gain experience in the thriving hospitality industry, potentially leading to long-term employment.

However, Fantasy Springs isn't solely focused on short-term needs. The second career expo, scheduled for Wednesday, February 26th, 2026, also from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, will cast a broader net, aiming to fill a diverse spectrum of full-time and part-time positions across the entire resort complex. This includes opportunities in casino operations (dealers, pit managers, security), hotel management (front desk, concierge, housekeeping), culinary arts (chefs, cooks, servers), entertainment (technical staff, event coordinators), marketing, and administrative roles.

Larry Victorino, General Manager of Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, emphasized the company's dedication to attracting and retaining top talent. "We are always looking to add talented team members to our Fantasy Springs family," Victorino stated. "These career expos offer a great opportunity for job seekers to connect with our recruiters and learn about the many career paths we offer." This sentiment highlights a strategic shift within the resort towards viewing employees not just as workers, but as integral components of the Fantasy Springs experience.

The move comes at a time when the hospitality and entertainment industry continues to navigate a competitive labor market. The demand for skilled workers is high, and employers are increasingly focused on offering competitive wages, comprehensive benefits packages, and opportunities for career advancement to attract and retain employees. Fantasy Springs' proactive approach with these career expos demonstrates a clear understanding of these dynamics.

Beyond the immediate job opportunities, Fantasy Springs offers a robust training and development program. Employees are frequently provided with opportunities to enhance their skills and advance their careers within the organization. This commitment to internal growth fosters a loyal and dedicated workforce, contributing to the overall quality of service at the resort. The resort's size and scope - encompassing a casino, hotel, multiple restaurants, entertainment venues, and event spaces - provides a wealth of career pathways for ambitious individuals.

Industry analysts predict continued growth in the Coachella Valley's tourism sector, fueled by major events like the Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals, as well as a growing demand for leisure travel. Fantasy Springs, as a leading destination, is strategically positioning itself to capitalize on this growth by ensuring it has a highly skilled and motivated workforce. The resort's consistent investment in its employees reflects a long-term vision for sustained success.

Job seekers interested in attending either career expo are strongly encouraged to bring copies of their resumes. Recruiters will be on hand to discuss available positions, answer questions, and conduct preliminary interviews.
