Valley Beach Brings Surf and Sand to Valley Forge Casino Resort in King of Prussia
/Valley Forge Casino Resort (1160 First Avenue) brings back the surf and sand with the return of Valley Beach Poolside Club. Dip your toes in the 50 tons of sand surrounding the 22,000 gallon pool, as you feast on shore-eats from a brand new food truck, sip on cocktails and craft beers at the open-air bars, relax under the shade of your own private cabana, find inner harmony with poolside yoga, jam to live entertainment on the stage, and splash the summer away. Skip the shore traffic and find your oasis right in King of Prussia, just two miles from the King of Prussia Mall.
Valley Beach officially launches for summer with seven-day a week hours starting June 27, 2016, in time for July 4th Weekend. Valley Beach is open to all checked-in hotel guests, day pass holders ($10), beach tag holders or elite casino members.

“Valley Beach is a summer-long party, but without the hassle of shore traffic, “said Chief Marketing Officer Jennifer Galle. “Enjoy the best of the beach – relaxing in the sun, drinks, live music, hot DJs, outdoor eats and more - all right here in King of Prussia.”
The region’s summertime hot spot for poolside food, drink and live music is back and better than ever! Valley Beach’s new additions for the 2016 season include weekly outdoor yoga and free happy hour, a shore-themed food truck, expanded bar lists, more entertainment, expanded bar service, poolside showers, new towel hut, poolside bottle service and more.
Relax on over-sized loungers by pool as you work on that perfect tan. Challenge your friends to games on the authentic sandy beach. Cool down with a frozen drink under the cover of private cabanas. After a day of fun in the sun, look for things to really heat up with live entertainment, DJs, open-air dining and other surprises.
