Delaware Casinos Post $34.4 Million Revenue in September 2026

Delaware’s three casinos generated a combined $34.4 million in net casino revenue for September 2026, and this total marks a 5.4% decline from the $36.38 million posted in September 2025. The figures come from official reports that track video lottery terminals and table games across Delaware Park, Bally’s Dover, and Harrington Raceway & Casino, while observers note the drop occurred even as individual properties showed mixed results.

Breakdown of Revenue Sources

Video lottery terminal net proceeds reached $30.81 million during the month, and that amount reflects a 4.7% decrease from the prior year. Table games produced $3.59 million in win, which represents an 11.3% year-over-year decline. These two categories together account for the full $34.4 million total, and data shows table games experienced the steeper percentage drop even though they represent a smaller share of overall revenue.

Analysts who reviewed the monthly reports point out that video lottery terminals continue to drive the majority of earnings at each property. The terminals generated roughly 89% of the combined revenue in September 2026, whereas table games contributed the remaining 11%. Such proportions have remained consistent across recent reporting periods according to the same state figures.

Performance by Individual Property

Delaware Park recorded approximately $15.2 million in total net revenue, and that figure positioned the property as the top earner while also marking it as the only casino among the three to remain relatively stable compared with the previous September. The other two locations posted more noticeable declines, which pulled the statewide total downward.

Bally’s Dover experienced the largest percentage decrease, falling 10% to $10.7 million. Harrington Raceway & Casino filled out the remaining portion of the statewide total, and its results contributed to the overall 5.4% drop even though specific monthly numbers for that site were not highlighted separately in the primary summaries. Together the three properties produced the reported $34.4 million, and the distribution illustrates how stability at one location could not fully offset reductions at the others.

Year-over-Year Comparison and Context

September 2025 had delivered $36.38 million across the same three casinos, and the 2026 result therefore sits $1.98 million below that benchmark. Video lottery terminal proceeds fell by roughly $1.52 million, while table-game win dropped by about $0.46 million. These parallel reductions produced the combined 5.4% decrease, and state gaming reports released in early October 2026 presented the numbers without additional commentary on external factors.

Those who track Delaware gaming data note that the September 2026 report continues a pattern of month-to-month fluctuations that have appeared in prior years. The current figures cover only the one-month period and do not include year-to-date totals or projections for the remainder of 2026, which leaves observers waiting for subsequent releases to identify longer-term trends.

Regulatory Reporting Process

The Delaware Lottery compiles and publishes these monthly revenue statistics, and the agency releases the information after each calendar month concludes. Multiple outlets then reference the same underlying numbers, which creates consistency across published summaries. Readers can examine the primary data through official channels or through coverage that links directly to the monthly casino revenue figures for the September 2026 period.

Because the reports focus strictly on net proceeds after payouts, they provide a clear snapshot of operator performance without incorporating ancillary revenue streams such as food, beverage, or hotel operations. This narrow scope allows direct comparison of gaming results across properties and across time periods.

Conclusion

The September 2026 results establish that Delaware’s casino sector generated $34.4 million while experiencing a 5.4% year-over-year decline, driven by a 4.7% drop in video lottery terminal proceeds and an 11.3% reduction in table-game win. Delaware Park maintained relative stability near $15.2 million and led the group, Bally’s Dover fell 10% to $10.7 million, and the combined performance of all three properties produced the reported statewide total. As October 2026 unfolds, these figures serve as the most recent benchmark available from state regulators.
