The First Casino in the UAE to Open in 2026

Wynn Resorts plans to open a large casino in Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates in 2026.

The company's CEO, Craig Billings, announced that the Wynn Marjan resort will include a gaming area of about 18,500 square meters. The Emirates are known for their grandeur – the world's tallest building is in Dubai, and the largest shopping center was built in the Emirates. Now, the world's largest casino will also open here.

Recently, the Department of Entertainment and Gaming Regulation was established in Ras Al Khaimah, which will be responsible for the responsible conduct of gambling.

The casino will operate exclusively for foreign guests. Its launch is estimated to cost $3.9 billion.
