The state’s record for recording $1 billion-plus in monthly gambling revenue is eight months, which was recorded from November 2006 to May 2007, just before the Great Recession tore through the economy.īussmann says he thinks the recovery will continue cautiously for now.

In September, the state collected $1.2 billion in gaming revenue, marking the seventh consecutive month of $1 billion-plus in revenue. Statewide, Nevada is also continuing to hit records. “It shows Vegas is not only back but shows its resiliency.” “It makes sense-there’s been tons of pent-up demand and the third quarter was kicked off with events in Vegas like Garth Brooks, Bruno Mars and the McGregor fight and it ended with the Raiders,” says Bussmann.
