Missouri Casino Revenue Rises 7.6% to $160.6M in February 2026

Missouri’s 13 casinos generated $160.6 million in February 2026, a 7.6% year-over-year increase, with slots driving growth
Missouri’s casino market posted another month of solid growth, as noted in the Missouri Gaming Commission’s monthly report.
The state’s 13 commercial casinos generated a combined $160.6 million in February 2026. That is up 7.6% compared to February 2025. The figures were published by the Missouri Gaming Commission.
Slots led the way. Slot machine revenue reached $139 million, up 9.4% year-over-year. Table games moved in the opposite direction. That segment declined 2.6% to $21.6 million.
Ameristar St. Charles Leads the Market
Ameristar St. Charles held its position as Missouri’s top-earning property. The St. Charles casino posted $25.1 million in February, up 7.5% year-over-year. It has led the state in monthly revenue consistently throughout the past year.
River City came in second. The South St. Louis County property rose 0.8% to $21.7 million.
Several other properties also reached double-digit revenue figures for the month. Hollywood Casino recorded $20.8 million. Ameristar Kansas City brought in $16 million. Harrah’s Kansas City generated $14.1 million. Argosy Riverside posted $13.8 million. Horseshoe St. Louis followed at $12.9 million.
Bally’s Kansas City came in at $10 million, with no year-over-year figure reported.
Smaller Casinos Post the Strongest Gains
The biggest percentage increases in February came from the state’s smaller properties.
Mark Twain Casino led all venues in year-over-year growth. It climbed 18.1% to $2.8 million. Century Casino Caruthersville rose 17.4% to $5.3 million. Isle of Capri Boonville was up 15.3% to $7.8 million. St. Jo Frontier gained 10% to reach $4 million.
Context: Growth Continues to Slow From January Highs
February’s 7.6% growth is healthy. However, it follows an exceptional January 2026, when 12 of the state’s 13 casinos posted year-over-year gains and total revenue rose 13.1%. The moderation is partly seasonal. February is the shortest month of the year and consistently produces lower absolute figures than surrounding months.
Missouri’s commercial gaming market has now posted year-over-year revenue growth in every month of the past year. The consistent performance reflects a stable and mature market.
The December 2025 launch of legal sports betting adds a separate revenue stream tracked independently of casino floor results. The Missouri Gaming Commission publishes monthly casino revenue data for all 13 properties at mgc.dps.mo.gov.
