Detroit casinos suffered another set back in gambling revenue in November, but it wasn’t as great a loss as expected.
The three casinos combined for $76 million in slot and table game revenue, a 28.2% dip from its monthly average in 2023 prior to the strike ($105.9 million). While it was $5.7 million lower than the October total of $81.7 million, that’s somewhat of a win giving the casino workers’ strike impacted more days in November than it did in October.
The gambling revenue loss was 23.9% down from November 2022’s $99.9 million.
When comparing to any other full month of operation – so, not counting some months during the pandemic when there were casino closures – November’s $76 million in gaming revenue was the lowest full month total since February 2001.
