US.- The Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB) has reported that the state’s casinos generated $1.3bn in revenue in April. That’s an increase of 5.3 per cent year-on-year but down from $1.43bn in March.
Clark County, which includes the Strip, downtown Las Vegas Strip, North Las Vegas, the Boulder Strip, and surrounding areas, generated $1.1bn, up 4.8 per cent from the same period in 2025. The Las Vegas Strip contributed $689.4m, an increase of 6.6 per cent.
Washoe County, which includes casinos in Reno, Sparks, and North Lake Tahoe, generated $97.3m, up 12.7 per cent year-on-year. South Lake Tahoe generated $18.4m, an increase of 10.5 per cent, Elko County $33.6m, up 1.2 per cent and the Carson Valley Area generated $12.2m, up 6.9 per cent.
According to the report, the state collected $78.4m in percentage fees, up 15.2 per cent compared to the same period in 2025.
The Las Vegas casino scene looks set for a shake up, with Tilman Fertitta to buy Caesars Entertainment in a transaction valued at around $17.6bn. Fertitta Entertainment, which owns the casino and hotel chain Golden Nugget and Landry’s restaurants as well as the NBA’s Houston Rockets, has offered $31 per share for Caesars, which represents a 49 per cent premium on the stock’s closing price on February 25 before the possibility of a deal was first reported.
Caesars’ board has unanimously approved the sale and urged shareholders to accept the offer, with July 11 the deadline to consider alternative offers under a “go‑shop” provision.
