Macau casinos generated gross gaming revenue (GGR) of MOP15.57 billion (US$1.93 billion) in May 2023. The gaming income represents the Chinese enclave’s best monthly performance since January 2020.
Macau’s COVID-19 recovery is coming about two years after Las Vegas casinos experienced unprecedented play. Gaming analysts and casino executives cite pent-up demand from the pandemic as a reason for the record revenues experienced in Nevada in 2021 and last year.
More than 7,000 miles away in Macau, the Chinse Special Administrative Region (SAR) is only now beginning its coronavirus rebound. May marked the city’s third consecutive month in posting its best GGR number since January 2020.
The $1.93 billion won off gamblers last month represented a 367% surge from May 2022, when the six casino operators in town collectively won just $413 million.
