There was a perfect storm of positives that boosted the state’s gaming revenue last year, including one more weekend day in 2022 than 2021 and a robust calendar of sports and entertainment events.
Nevada’s casinos set an all-time record with $14.8 billion in gaming win for 2022, though it already surpassed 2021’s record performance of $13.4 billion by November, according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
The board on Tuesday also reported that the state’s 434 licensed casinos won $1.31 billion from gamblers, a 14.3 percent increase from December 2021 and 24.3 percent ahead of December 2019. It was the 22nd straight month of winnings more than $1 billion.
