Gaming revenue for the Danville Casino dipped slightly again last month, but remained well above its counterpart in Bristol. The temporary facility brought in about $19.14 million in September, down from the $19.63 million posted in August.
The Virginia Lottery released the figures Friday.
The casino in Bristol — another temporary site with more slots and tables — brought in $12.71 million. Danville’s gaming establishment has consistently beat Bristol revenues since it opened May 15 in Schoolfield.
The Danville Casino is housed in a giant tent-like structure while construction continues on a full resort expected to open by late 2024. On a daily basis, cranes dot the Danville skyline — beside three iconic smokestacks reminiscent of a textile mill that once stood on the site — as crews work on the $650 million Caesars Virginia endeavor that includes a hotel.
