The venue this question points to sits in Grantville, Pennsylvania
The Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course is fixed at coordinates 40.39666667, -76.65861111 in Grantville, Pennsylvania, roughly 85 straight-line miles from Philadelphia and 105 straight-line miles from Washington DC. The keyword names Toledo, Ohio, but no venue by that exact name appears in the documented reference set for this article. What does exist is the Grantville property, and that is the venue whose fixed geography this article can describe.
Straight-line distance is not road distance. Roads follow terrain, cross rivers at fixed bridge points, and bend around urban and rural obstacles, so a drive is always longer than the great-circle figure. This article does not publish road mileage, driving time, or any route instruction.

Why straight-line miles understate a real trip
A great-circle distance is the shortest path across the surface of the earth between two coordinate pairs. It ignores everything that governs actual movement: rivers that can only be crossed at certain bridges, mountain ridges that force detours, state boundaries, and the simple fact that roads are built to connect populated places rather than to trace a geometric line.
For a venue in south-central Pennsylvania, the difference is material. The region is cut by the Susquehanna River and framed by the Appalachian ridges to the north and west. A straight line from Grantville to a point in Ohio or New York may cross water or elevation that no public road follows directly, so the driven route bends south toward Harrisburg or north toward the Interstate corridor before continuing. That is why this article labels every figure as great-circle and publishes no road mileage at all.
The venue's fixed position and regional orientation
The Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course is documented as being in Grantville, Pennsylvania, east of Harrisburg. Using only the coordinate pair, the venue sits in the southeastern quadrant of Pennsylvania, north and slightly west of Philadelphia, and west of New York City and the New Jersey border. It is well east of Pittsburgh and the Ohio state line.
That placement matters for anyone reading the keyword as a Toledo question. Toledo sits in northwestern Ohio, near the Michigan border and the western end of Lake Erie. The Grantville property is not near Toledo, and no documented straight-line pair between this venue and Toledo exists in the reference set for this article. The closest documented Ohio reference point is Scioto Downs at 337.0 straight-line miles, which gives a sense of scale without pretending to measure the Toledo pair specifically.
What the bingo question can and cannot be answered here
The documented reference sources for this venue describe a thoroughbred racing track and casino that opened on August 30, 1972, with over 2,480 slot machines as of July 2010 and table games beginning operation on July 13, 2010. No bingo hall, bingo schedule, or bingo offering appears in those sources, so this article cannot state whether bingo is currently offered.
Bingo availability at any casino property is a live operational detail. A venue may add, remove, relocate, or re-time a bingo room without changing its published facility figures, and a bingo calendar is exactly the kind of item that changes between a reader's search and their arrival. The authoritative current answer lives on the property's own amenities or gaming pages, or with its guest services desk.
How to measure the trip from your own starting point
The venue's position is fixed; your position is not. If you are planning a visit from a city not listed in the table above, take the venue's coordinates and your own starting coordinates, then measure the great-circle distance with any standard mapping tool. That gives you the same measurement type used throughout this article.
For an actual road trip, use a mapping service that computes driving distance and time from your specific origin. The figure will be longer than the straight-line number, and the difference depends on where you start. A point across the Susquehanna may require a significant bridge detour; a point along the same side of the river may not.
What to confirm before you go
Several items on this topic are changeable and should be checked against the property's own channels before travel. The table below separates what is fixed from what is live.
| Item | Status | Where the current answer lives |
|---|---|---|
| Venue location (Grantville, Pennsylvania) | Fixed and documented | Publicly published reference sources |
| Slot machine count | Documented as of a past date | Property fact sheet or regulatory filing |
| Bingo availability | Live and changeable | Property amenities page or guest services |
| Bingo session schedule | Live and changeable | Property events calendar |
| Road distance and driving time | Depends on origin | Mapping service using your exact start point |
The venue's ownership and branding are also subject to change through sales and rebrands, and facility figures are revised as properties are rebuilt and expanded. Treat every documented number as a point-in-time figure, not a live guarantee.
