LaughlinBuzz.Com


Laughlin Casino gaming revenue as reported by the Nevada Gaming Control Board was down -9.44% for August of 2020 compared to August of 2019.  

2020 August Gaming Revenue in Laughlin was $35,122,600 compared to 38,784,996  in August of 2019. 

How did Laughlin compare to other areas and locations?

Even though the gaming revenue in Laughlin was down for the month of August, it was less than might be expected.  With the pandemic, occupancy restrictions, mask requirements, bar closures, and no live entertainment, it could of been far worse.   In fact, the Laughlin number was much better than Clark County as a whole (-25.07%), the Las Vegas Strip  (-39.19%), and Downtown Las Vegas (-21.54%).   

The Boulder Strip, which includes Henderson, NV Casinos, was up 29.62% and Mesquite was up 9.48%.
