List of casinos in Michigan

This is a list of casinos in Michigan. Gambling has been legal in Michigan since the 1980s. The state is home to 26 land-based casinos, 23 of which are Indian casinos and 3 are commercial casinos in Detroit.

Online casinos

As well as legal land-based gambling, those living in or visiting Michigan can now sign up and play at online casinos. On December 20, 2019, Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed Bill 4311 and legalized online gambling within state lines. The Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) was then formed, and in late 2020 the MGCB issued licenses, giving online casinos the go-ahead to launch at the state of 2021.

Despite the 2019 legalization, unregulated offshore casinos are a growing problem across the United States. In April 2025, the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) took action against 13 websites that were found to be unlawfully targeting Michigan residents.[1] This action was a strong message to offshore operators, with a statement from The Board reading: "The MGCB’s action serves as a firm warning to illegal offshore operators attempting to skirt Michigan’s legal framework."[2]
