US – MGM National Harbour makes preparations for sports betting

MGM Resorts is preparing for sports betting in Maryland with MGM National Harbor filing applications with Prince George’s County for a ‘sportsbook enhancement project.’

The sportsbook will be built next to National Market, the food court in MGM National Harbor.

The Maryland General Assembly green-lit new laws last week to bring sports betting into the state’s six casinos as will racetracks, off-track betting, bingo, and the stadiums of the Washington Football Team, Baltimore Orioles and Baltimore Ravens.

MGM National Harbor said: “We support the action of Maryland’s legislature that brings legalized sports betting one step closer to reality. We are actively building out a variety of experiences that will make MGM National Harbor the most cutting-edge destination in the DMV to watch and bet on sports. Details of everything we are developing will be shared in the weeks to come.”
