Receita de jogos de Nevada atinge US$ 1,2 bilhão em fevereiro
Nevada’s gaming industry maintained steady growth in February 2026, with total win revenue reaching $1,236,196,257, according to the latest figures from the Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB).
The figure represents a 1.50 percent increase compared to February 2025, when gaming win stood at $1,217,899,083. While the rise is relatively modest, it signals continued stability for one of the state’s primary economic drivers.
Looking at the NGCB data from 1 July 2025 through 28 February 2026, total gaming wins have climbed 0.79 percent year-on-year, reaching $10,588,623,807.
Clark County posts mixed results as Strip records slight gains
Clark County, home to the Las Vegas Strip, continued to dominate Nevada’s gaming landscape, generating $1,071,506,737 in total revenue for February. This marked a marginal increase of 0.74 percent compared to the same period last year.
The Las Vegas Strip recorded a gaming win of $696,285,791, reflecting a 0.86 percent uptick. However, performance across the wider region was uneven. Downtown Las Vegas reported a decline of 4.18 percent, with revenue falling to $69,782,180. The NGCB data also showed that Laughlin experienced a sharper contraction, down 8.83 percent to $38,503,260.
Meanwhile, several local markets posted gains. North Las Vegas saw revenue rise by 4.74 percent, while the Boulder Strip increased by 3.54 percent, contributing $77,269,225. Mesquite also delivered strong results, with a 5.16 percent monthly increase and a notable 9.13 percent growth for the fiscal year to date.
Washoe County drives northern Nevada growth
Based on the report, Northern Nevada delivered a stronger performance overall, led by Washoe County, which posted a 7.13 percent increase in gaming win to $84,158,609.
The city of Reno was a key contributor, generating $60,576,163 in revenue, up 7.73 percent. Sparks followed closely with an 8.33 percent rise, reinforcing the region’s positive momentum. Elsewhere in the north, the report showed the Elko County recorded a gaming win of $33,598,772, representing a 7.68 percent increase.
However, not all areas shared in the growth. North Lake Tahoe stood out as a notable underperformer, with revenue declining by 21.29 percent to $1,406,691.
State tax collections fall despite higher revenues
Despite the overall increase in gaming win, Nevada’s percentage fee collections for March, based on February’s taxable revenue, have declined. According to the NGCB, the state collected $72,955,106 in gaming taxes, representing a 3.04 percent decrease, or $2,287,957 less than the same period last year.
Nevertheless, fiscal year-to-date collections remain ahead of the previous year. Total collections have reached $775,762,931, reflecting a 1.56 percent increase compared to the prior fiscal period.
Officials noted that these figures remain subject to revision and do not include $7,503,478 in transferable tax credits applied so far this fiscal year.
Stable outlook as industry navigates regional disparities
As Nevada progresses further into 2026, NGCB data shows the state’s gaming sector remains resilient, underpinned by steady statewide growth. While certain areas, such as Laughlin and North Lake Tahoe, face ongoing challenges, stronger performances in regions like Washoe County and local Clark County markets are helping to offset declines.
