Caesars in Danville leads Virginia’s casinos in January revenue

The first full month of operations at the Caesars Virginia casino resort in Danville yielded more than $28.5 million in total revenue, more than either the Hard Rock Bristol casino or the Rivers Casino Portsmouth.

This is just slightly more than Caesars’ December revenue, which was $28.3 million, though the casino opened just over halfway through the month.

In January, almost $21.4 million was brought in through slot machines in Danville, with the remaining $7.2 million from table games.

Across the state, casinos brought in $72.3 million for the month, with the Hard Rock Bristol and the Rivers Casino Portsmouth generating about $18.5 million and $25.2 million in revenue in January, respectively.

A portion of the total revenue goes to the host localities through the gaming tax.

Danville saw almost $1.7 million in gaming tax revenue during the month of January, a slight dip from the almost $2 million it brought in in December.

The city is projected to see an additional $35 million to $40 million after the casino resort’s first full year of operations, Danville City Manager Ken Larking said. The city’s total budget for the 2024 fiscal year is about $140 million.

The Hard Rock Bristol, which divides this money among 14 localities in Southwest Virginia, brought in $1.1 million in gaming tax revenue in January.

The Rivers Casino Portsmouth contributed about $1.5 million in gaming tax revenue to its host city.
