Las Vegas Gambling Revenues Still on the Up and Up

Filed in archive Casinos on May 11, 2006

Nevada gaming revenues continues to increase - posting a 3% year-on-year increase in March. The Vegas strip increased even more - up 6.2% from last March

Gaming win for the gambling state increased to $1.06 billion, whilst the Strip saw revenues of $546.1 million.

The results reflect the "continuation of the strong results we have seen over the last 20 months and the opening of the Wynnn property," said Frank Streshley, an analyst at the Nevada Gaming Control Board.

The only negatives were Reno and casinos in the North - largely due to bad weather and road closures
