Illinois Casino Revenue Increases Slightly in June To Halt Skid

June’s casino revenues in Illinois were almost identical to the previous month. The state’s 13 commercial casinos reported about $122.25 million in combined revenue, a slight increase of 0.2% from $122 million in the May Illinois casino revenue report.

While the casino revenues were mostly flat in June, the financial performance did stop a two-month skid that started following a strong March and extended through May. Also, the June 2023 casino financial report was a strong improvement in a same-month year-over-year comparison.

In March, Illinois casinos enjoyed a revenue spike of $131 million but the casino numbers slid to $128.13 million in April, then to $122 million in May, according to the Illinois Gaming Board.

June Increase Stops Brief Slide

However, the June figure of $122.25 million not only stopped that slide, but it was also a 10.45% increase over June 2022 ($110.68 million).

For June 2023, more than $92.82 million of the total revenue came from slots while $29.43 million came from table games.

There are no Illinois online casinos. A legislative proposal to legalize them, as several other states have done, gained no traction in 2023.

In June, the casinos generated about $33.8 million in taxes with the state’s share coming to about $26.8 million and local share amounting to nearly $7 million.
