Maryland’s six casinos generated $172,177,206 in revenue from slot machines and table games during April 2026, the best single-month performance through the first 10 months of Fiscal Year 2026.

The statewide total marked a 5.9 percent increase, or $9.5 million, compared with April 2025. Casino gaming contributions to the state totaled $72,469,331, up 2.7 percent from the previous year. Of that amount, $52,298,102 went directly to the Education Trust Fund.

MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County led all properties with $73,945,504 in revenue, a 7.8 percent increase from April 2025. The casino, located just north of Southern Maryland, continues to draw players from Calvert, Charles and St. Mary’s counties who seek convenient access to gaming and entertainment near the Washington, D.C. area.
