Re: Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR)
Dear Tribal Leader,
Today I had the distinct honor of announcing the FY 2024 Gross Gaming Revenue of $43.9 billion—an all-time high for tribal gaming and a $2.0 billion increase over FY 2023, representing overall growth of 4.6%. Notably, all eight of NIGC’s administrative regions saw positive growth, with the Oklahoma City and Washington, D.C. regions leading the way—each posting double-digit increases over FY 2023.
This record-breaking year for Indian gaming underscores the industry’s continued resilience and strength, and these strong numbers further reflect the dedication of your leadership to preserve and grow this critical economic engine in your community. I recognize and applaud your hard work to build sustainable economies through innovation, strategic development, and sound regulatory practices!
The positive growth in the FY 2024 GGR demonstrates the adaptability and innovation that define Indian gaming. With continued strong tribal governance and collaborative regulation, the industry is well-positioned to meet future challenges and opportunities. NIGC congratulates all tribal gaming operations on another historic year and remains proud to support the continued success of this vital industry.
The FY 2024 GGR report, as well as information on NIGC’s ongoing regulatory efforts and resources are available on our newly designed website at www.NIGC.gov.
Sincerely,
Sharon M. Avery
Acting Chairwoman
