Queensland gaming revenue rises in May
Machine revenue rose by 13.5 per cent year-on-year.
Australia.- The Queensland’s gaming industry’s machine metered win reached AU$332.7m (US$ 215m) in May. That’s a rise of 13.5 per cent increase compared to the same month in 2024 and 8.5 per cent from April 2025. Average daily revenue (ADR) per machine rose 12.1 per cent year-on-year, from AU$237 to AU$266.
That makes May 2025 the second-best month on record for Queensland gaming win behind AU$339.3m (USD 219m) in August 2024. The growth was partly attributed to seasonal factors, including an extra trading day and the Easter holidays.
The highest year-on-year increases in metered win were recorded in Gladstone (26.6 per cent), Logan (19.5 per cent), and Mackay (16.9 per cent). Among SA4 areas, Brisbane North (21 per cent), Logan-Beaudesert (18.8 per cent), and Brisbane South (17.5 per cent) led. Logan-Beaudesert saw the highest ADR at AU$375.
Queensland’s clubs and hotels saw revenue increases, despite a slight shift in market share. Clubs experienced a 15.4 per cent rise in machine gross revenue, reaching AU$145.4m (US$ 94m), while hotels saw a 12 per cent increase to AU$187.3m (US$ 121m).
