Seeking an after-hours place to drink? Head to MGM Springfield.

The Springfield City Council Casino Oversight subcommittee approved a proposal Monday night to extend alcohol serving hours at the casino until 4 a.m. on the casino floor. With the City Council's recommendation, the matter will go before the state for approval.

Drinks will be served in different cups between 2 and 4 a.m. and only available to customers actively engaged in gaming. Restaurants and bars not connected to the casino floor will still close at 2 a.m.

Alcohol sales will be prohibited between 4 and 8 a.m. daily.
