Oct 07, 2020 Live Casino & Hotel at Arundel Mills is converting its Center Stage performance venue into a sports-themed lounge, restaurant and — pending Maryland voter approval — a sports betting venue. MGM National Harbor is a luxury resort, retail, dining, entertainment and casino just minutes from Washington D.C on the banks of the Potomac River. Prince George’s County was among the most severely affected of Maryland’s counties by the coronavirus. It entered into a limited phase two of the state reopening plan on June 15.
List of casinos[edit]
| Casino | Opening | Location | VLTS | Tables | Revenue[1] | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rocky Gap Casino Resort | May 22, 2013 | Flintstone | 631 | 18 | $46,082,330.36 | Built on the grounds of Rocky Gap State Park. First proposal was rejected due to failure by the developer to pay licensing fees. The Maryland Lottery subsequently lowered the casino tax rate for this location and allowed a second round of bids for new proposals, however, no developers submitted any bids. During the third round of bids, three developers submitted bids and licensing fees, two of which were rejected. The license went to the remaining developer and was awarded in late April 2012. Construction began after receiving approval by the Board of Public Works. The developer bought the entire existing resort in addition to building the casino. [2][3][4] |

Expansion of table games[edit]
- PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. — Despite the pandemic, Prince George’s County is still considered home to some of the wealthiest African American communities in the nation. However, it has not always been that way. In 2017, BET ranked five neighborhoods from the county on its list of 10 Most Affluent.
- The resort casino is located in Prince George’s County, Maryland in a waterfront development along the Potomac River. The Theater at MGM National Harbor features live performances by an incredible lineup of entertainers including Bruno Mars, Boyz II Men, Cher, Duran Duran, Lionel Richie, Ricky Martin, Sting, Earth Wind & Fire and many more.
Governor Martin O'Malley promised to look to expand Maryland's array of gambling in the 2012 legislative session. On February 7, 2012, Senator Douglas JJ Peters introduced legislation in the Maryland State Senate that would legalize an additional casino in Prince George's County. His legislation would legalize a certain number of slot machines and table games in Prince George's as well as table games for the other two open and three yet-to-open casinos in Maryland. The legislation would set aside 2.5% of the Prince George's County casino revenue for an economic development fund and an additional 2.5% of revenue to fund the construction of a new hospital in the County.[8] Such legislation must be approved by the House of Delegates, Senate, Governor, statewide voter referendum, and county-wide voter referendum. At the time, there was speculation that a casino license in Prince George's County would be awarded to a company that plans to build it at either National Harbor or Rosecroft Raceway. While this proposal failed during the regular 2012 legislative session, Governor O'Malley championed a special session in July of that year to address the issue of gambling expansion, which passed in the Maryland legislature. The casino legislation required it to pass a Maryland referendum in November. On November 6, 2012, the casino referendum passed, allowing table games at the existing authorized casinos and allowing a sixth casino to be built in Prince George's County.[9] On December 20, 2013, the Prince George's County casino license was awarded to MGM Resorts International for a casino resort, which opened on December 8, 2016, at National Harbor.
