From Chandler, the documented straight-line distance is 17.3 miles to Phoenix, 203.7 miles to Laughlin, 260.2 miles to Henderson, 271.4 miles to Bourbon Street, 273.0 miles to Las Vegas, 273.7 miles to Palm Springs, 305.9 miles to Temecula, 311.4 miles to San Diego, 372.5 miles to Los Angeles, 380.8 miles to LAX, 584.7 miles to Denver, and 596.6 miles to Modesto; each figure is straight-line and measured from the city, not from the property itself.
Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.
Where the venue is fixed
For this query, the fixed point is Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino in Chandler, Arizona. Publicly published reference sources document the venue at city level only, so the usable location facts here are Chandler in Maricopa County, Arizona, and the venue type as land-based.
That limitation matters. The city has published coordinates, but the property itself does not in the reference material used for this article, so any distance figure below is from Chandler as a city centre reference point rather than from the casino building.

| Modesto | 596.6 | great-circle |
These are great-circle measurements between city centres. They are useful for orientation and for comparing relative position, but they are not road miles and they are not measured from the property itself.
How to read these numbers correctly
A straight-line measurement answers one narrow question: how far apart two fixed points are on the map without following roads. It does not tell you what route a driver would take, what a mapping service would return, or how long a journey would take on a given day.
Real trips become longer because roads bend around terrain, water, built-up areas, and access constraints. A route may also detour because the road network does not connect two points in a direct line, or because a trip that crosses state boundaries has to follow the available transport corridors rather than the shortest geometric path.
That is why the Phoenix figure of 17.3 straight-line miles from Chandler should be read as a positional reference only. The same applies to the longer city-to-city figures for places such as Las Vegas at 273.0 straight-line miles or Denver at 584.7 straight-line miles.
What the city coordinates tell you about regional position
The published city coordinates for Chandler are 33.3 latitude and -111.83333333 longitude. Using those coordinates, Chandler sits in Arizona and provides the geographic anchor for this venue in Maricopa County.
The distance table also helps show relative position within the wider region. Chandler is much closer in straight-line terms to Phoenix at 17.3 miles than to out-of-state reference points such as San Diego at 311.4 miles, Los Angeles at 372.5 miles, Denver at 584.7 miles, or Modesto at 596.6 miles.
Because the venue is only documented at city level here, that regional reading is the most precise honest framing available. It tells you where the venue belongs geographically without pretending to know the property's own surveyed point.
What this article can and cannot measure
This article can measure only the city-based pairs listed in the table above. If you wanted the straight-line distance from the property itself to another place, or from a different starting point not listed here, this article cannot publish that figure.
It also cannot answer a near-me version of the question by guessing where you are. The venue's position is fixed in Chandler, Arizona; your position is not, so the right way to finish the calculation is to use your own map tool, set your starting point, and compare it against Chandler rather than against an invented reference.
Ownership and venue identity
Publicly published reference sources identify the property as Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino, also searched for here as wild pass casino. The same source states that it is owned by the Gila River Indian Community and that the hotel opened in 2009.
Those details help distinguish the venue from a generic casino search result, but they do not change the distance method. The location data available for this article still stops at the city level, so Chandler remains the reference point for every mileage figure shown.
What to confirm before you go
If you are planning a real trip, confirm the items that can change or that are not documented here. That includes the property's exact map pin, the route your navigation service chooses, parking arrangements, hotel availability, and any current opening information published by the venue itself.
The authoritative current answer for those live details is usually on the property's own contact page, booking page, or official map listing. Before setting off, make sure you are looking at the exact venue name, not just a shortened search phrase such as wild pass casino.
Using this page for your own starting point
The most practical use of this page is as a fixed-location reference. If your own origin is not Phoenix, Laughlin, Henderson, Bourbon Street, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Temecula, San Diego, Los Angeles, LAX, Denver, or Modesto, then the table still gives you a sense of where Chandler sits relative to several known points.
From there, you can measure from your own position in any consumer map tool by entering Chandler, Arizona, or the full venue name. That approach avoids mixing city-centre straight-line figures with road routing results, which are different measurements and should not be treated as interchangeable.
FAQ
Is wild pass casino in Phoenix?
No. Publicly published reference sources place Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino in Chandler, Arizona, in Maricopa County. Phoenix appears here only as a documented comparison point, at 17.3 straight-line miles from Chandler city centre, which is not the same thing as saying the venue is in Phoenix.
Can this article tell me the driving distance to wild pass casino?
No. This page publishes only documented great-circle distances from Chandler city centre to the listed reference points. Road mileage is always longer than straight-line mileage, and the exact road figure depends on the route chosen by a live mapping service and on the property's exact access point.
Why are the distances measured from Chandler instead of from the casino building?
Because the published reference material used here documents the venue at city level only. It names Chandler, Maricopa County, Arizona, and identifies the venue as land-based, but it does not provide property coordinates. For that reason, every mileage figure in this article is explicitly from the city, not from the property itself.
