MGM Resorts gives up on Dubai casino plans until further notice

Giant casino and hospitality company MGM Resorts has abandoned its plans to build a casino in Dubai, at least for the time being. That being said, the company remains optimistic about completing its massive resort project, casino or not.

The cultural resistance to gambling in the United Arab Emirates is the reason MGM Resorts is abandoning its casino project, at least for the time being. Dubai is still hesitant to approve casino gaming, despite the widespread belief that at least some emirates will eventually soften and allow certain types of real-money games.
