(Michigan).- Detroit’s three commercial casinos posted a combined $103.9 million in aggregate revenue (AGR) in January 2026, reflecting modest year-over-year growth in table games and slot performance, while retail sports betting qualified adjusted gross receipts (QAGR) recorded a significant decline.
According to figures released February 10, table games and slot machines generated $103.1 million during the month, while retail sports betting contributed $770,319 in QAGR.
January market share distribution was led by MGM Grand Detroit at 49%, followed by MotorCity Casino with 30%, and Hollywood Casino at Greektown with 21%.
Table Games and Slots Show Stable Growth
Revenue from table games and slots increased 0.8% compared with January 2025, although it dipped 0.3% from December 2025 levels. For the period January 1–31, revenue was also up 0.8% year-over-year, signaling steady performance in the city’s core gaming segment.
At the operator level, results compared with January 2025 were as follows:

Retail Sports Betting Sees Year-over-Year Contraction
