Last year was a good year for Greater Philadelphia casinos, writes Ethan Lott for the Pittsburgh Business Times.

Overall, in Pennsylvania, gaming revenue at casinos was up 9% in 2023. This translates to more than $5.6 billion in bets made at casinos, and racetracks, through online interactive wagering, fantasy sports wagering, and video terminal betting at highway truck stops.

And here in the Greater Philadelphia area, we had some of the top-performing casinos and racetracks in the state.

Valley Forge Casino Resort in King of Prussia took the second spot in the ranking with $763.7 million in revenue.

Parx Casino and Philadelphia Park Racetrack in Bensalem came in third with $664 million and Rivers Casino Philadelphia was fourth with $577.8 million.

Across the state interactive wagering online and through phone apps saw the largest increase among betting types.

Table game revenue was down 1.9% while sports wagering was up 14.3%.
