Wynn Macau

Reported revenue: $230.7m

Owner: Wynn Resorts

Wynn Macau is one of two casino resorts in the Chinese gambling capital, both of which are major players in the city and the destination for millions of gamblers in China and abroad.

The Londoner Macau

Reported revenue: $283m

Owner: Las Vegas Sands

The first of Las Vegas Sands’ casinos to feature in this list, with two more to come. The Londoner represents a smaller destination than The Venetian or Marina Bay Sands.

MGM Cotai

Reported revenue: $320m

Owner: MGM Resorts International

The first of MGM’s two casinos in Macau.

City Of Dreams

Reported revenue: $358.3m

Owner: Melco Resorts

Melco Resorts’ only casino in the top 10 takes fifth place in the province of Macau, making it the most prized and valuable asset for Melco in Asia.

Wynn Palace Macau

Reported revenue: $369.4m

Owner: Wynn Resorts

The biggest of Wynn’s properties in Macau, it places forth in Macau’s own rankings and, combined with its sister hotel, makes Wynn one of Macau’s largest operators.

Resorts World Sentosa

Reported revenue: $484.5m

Owner: Genting

Singapore’s second casino resort is located on the beautiful Sentosa Island, where the man-made beaches make the player feel as though they are in paradise. Though it isn’t as large as Marina Bay Sands, Resorts World still has the air of luxury associated with Singapore.

Venetian Macau

Reported revenue: $558m

Owner: Las Vegas Sands

The biggest property that Las Vegas Sands has in Macau takes third spot in the region and fourth overall in Asia – impressive considering that Las Vegas Sands no longer has any resorts left in the historic US gambling hub.

MGM China

Reported revenue: $618m

Owner: MGM Resorts International

MGM’s most well-known Chinese property is the third largest in all of Asia, making more than enough revenue to justify MGM’s decision to have both its venues in the Chinese gambling province.

Galaxy Macau

Reported revenue: $680m

Owner: Galaxy Entertainment Group

Officially the second-biggest casino in Asia – and the biggest overall in Macau – Galaxy Macau fends off its local competition to sit pretty as the weightiest gambling hub in the world’s largest gambling hub.

Marina Bay Sands

Reported revenue: $848m

Owner: Las Vegas Sands

The gem in the Asian crown lies in Singapore, complete with a home that is famous around the world and dominates the Singapore skyline. Marina Bay Sands is a shining behemoth that attracts millions of people every year to its halls, easily beating out casino competition from Macau to sit alone atop the throne of Asian casinos.

 

Asia’s top 10 operators’ combined revenue

Of the 10 biggest casino operators in Asia, Las Vegas Sands swats aside the opposition with spots one, four and nine.

Second is MGM China, which has spots three and eight – both venues of which are located in Macau.

Third is Wynn Resorts, which, like MGM, has both its properties in the top 10 in Macau.

 

Operators’ combined revenue    Revenue (M)
Las Vegas Sands                                     $1.6bn
MGM China                                             $938m
Wynn Resorts                                         $600m
