Record months for Las Vegas

Board games increased + 32%, to $ 324 million, with $ 2.6 billion bet. A figure that is growing exponentially: the state of Nevada lives mainly thanks to tourism, especially in the city of Las Vegas, thanks to 72 facilities in which to play. Some foreign online betting casinos have also been legalized that have encouraged spending in Nevada, along with money from the tourism industry.
The increase in travel also grew, especially to McCarran Airport, which welcomed about 5 million passengers passing through Las Vegas.

Las Vegas is constantly expanding
The closure during the pandemic, as in other cities around the world, has had serious consequences for Las Vegas. Despite everything, the reopening was great.

The Palm then reopened in a futuristic and important way on April 27, 2022, with a lot of renovation. In March 2022, the Oakview Group stated that it wanted to build a huge and varied $ 3 billion amusement park in Las Vegas. It will be located south of the Strip on Blue Diamond Road with 20,000 seats, a resort hotel and lots of entertainment: in addition to the game room, there is also a beautiful amphitheater.
