BALTIMORE- Maryland’s six casinos combined to generate $170,744,958 in gaming revenue during April 2022, state lottery officials said Thursday. 

The total represents an increase of $8,638,592 (5.3%) compared to April 2021 and surpassed the March 2022 figure of $170.6 million to become the fourth-best month in the history of the state’s casino program, according to Maryland Lottery and Gaming.  

Casino gaming contributions to the state in April 2022 totaled $71,853,298, an increase of $1,928,640 (2.8%) compared to April 2021. 

Contributions to the Education Trust Fund in April 2022 were $52,228,442, an increase of $1,427,101 (2.8%) compared to April 2021. Casino gaming revenues also support the communities and jurisdictions where the casinos are located, Maryland’s horse racing industry, and small, minority- and women-owned businesses. 

Maryland’s six privately owned casinos offer both slot machines and table games: MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County; Live! Casino & Hotel in Anne Arundel County; Horseshoe Casino Baltimore in Baltimore City; Ocean Downs Casino in Worcester County; Hollywood Casino Perryville in Cecil County; and Rocky Gap Casino Resort in Allegany County. 

In April 2021, MGM National Harbor and Horseshoe Casino were limited to 50% capacity due to COVID-19. The remaining four casinos had no capacity limitations in April 2021, but some slot machine and table game seats could not be occupied due to social-distancing guidelines.
