Arising in soon-to-be glittering splendor on the shores of the Persian Gulf, Wynn Al Marjan represents a historic first: the initial casino-megaresort in the region. Wynn Resorts has pierced the anti-gambling veil of the United Arab Emirates, and its $5.1 billion investment is proof.
Wall Street is exuberant and no wonder. Wynn is projecting $1 billion to $1.7 billion in annual revenue from Al Marjan Island once it opens in 2027. That’s actually no big deal, according to corporate Chief Communications Officer Michael Weaver. He points out that in 2024, Wynn Macau produced $1.4 billion and Wynn Palace (also in Macau) yielded almost $2.3 billion. Marina Bay Sands in Singapore delivered over $3.7 billion.
