Nevada Casinos Experience Best April Ever, Statewide Gaming Revenue Tops $1.15B

April 2023 was an April unlike any other for Nevada casinos. Statewide gross gaming revenue (GGR) last month totaled upwards of $1.15 billion, the highest monthly casino win for any April in Nevada history.

April ’23 marked the 26th consecutive month where statewide GGR exceeded $1 billion. Before the unprecedented run, Nevada’s longest 10-digit monthly gaming revenue streak was just eight months, which was set from October 2006 through May 2007.

The Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB) revealed Wednesday that state casinos combined to win $1.159 billion in April, a 3% improvement from April 2022. Robust slot play of $837.9 million, a 4.2% year-over-year gain, fueled the higher revenue.

Table games across the Silver State were essentially flat, as the $321.8 million won on the felt represented a 0.8% decline from April 2022. Oddsmakers fared well; their win jumped 28% to $32.4 million. Handle, the total amount risked on sports, was $598 million.
