Macau shares gross gaming revenue results in 2024

The Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ) reported that Macau’s gross gaming revenue (GGR) for 2024 was MOP226.78bn (US$28.39bn), up 23.8 per cent year-on-year. However, the figure was down 22.45 per cent compared to 2019 levels when GGR reached MOP292.45bn (US$36.7bn). The results have surpassed the Macau government’s expectations. Authorities have forecast GGR could hit MOP216bn (US$27.07bn) in 2025.

2024 is the second year of Macau’s recovery from Covid-19, following the end of all travel restrictions in early 2023. According to authorities, nearly 35 million people visited the city last year, surpassing the government’s target of 34 million tourist arrivals.

December’s GGR was down 1.3 per cent sequentially from MOP18.44bn (US$2.31bn) to MOP18.2bn (US$2.28bn). Compared to the same month in 2023, the figure was down by 2 per cent. It was the third-lowest of the year, mainly due to President Xi Jinping’s visit for the 25th Anniversary of Macau’s handover to China on December 20.
