That\u2019s a notable 2.4% increase year-over-year, reaffirming its position as the top earner among Michigan\u2019s gaming hubs. MotorCity and Hollywood Casino followed, with revenues around $34.5 million and $26.2 million, respectively. Both saw a slight 0.6% rise from last year but experienced a tiny 0.2% dip when comparing month-over-month figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking at the broader picture, revenue from table games and slots hit about $112.7 million, marking a 1.2% increase over last year and climbing 3% from the previous month. However, for the period from January through May 2025, combined revenue from these gaming options dipped slightly\u2014down 0.2% compared to the same span in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tax contributions from these casinos totaled roughly $9.1 million\u2014just a $100,000 increase from last year. Meanwhile, Detroit benefited from $13.4 million in wagering taxes and development payments in May, supporting local initiatives and infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read also: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.igamingamerika.com\/japan-moves-to-ban-online-casinos-and-crack-down-on-illegal-gambling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Japan Moves to Ban Online Casinos and Crack Down on Illegal Gambling<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a regulatory note, the MGCB took action on June 2, sending cease-and-desist notices to six online gaming operators after discovering they were offering internet-based gambling without proper state approval\u2014an important reminder of Michigan\u2019s strict licensing standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turning to sports betting, the story was a different tune. Retail sports wagering gross revenue plunged by 31.1% year-over-year, totaling just $1.3 million. Despite that, the state\u2019s sports betting handle for May hit $9.2 million. Interestingly, even with the decline in gross revenue, retail sports betting experienced a boost from April\u2014an increase of nearly $965,000\u2014highlighting some resilience in the market.<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-white-color\"> Michigan Casino May 2025<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has unveiled the latest figures from the state\u2019s three leading casino properties for the month of May 2025: MGM Grand Detroit, MotorCity Casino, and Hollywood Casino at Greektown.
