Dubai is currently one of the most popular tourist destinations on the planet. It’s the place to be and be seen, yet there’s currently no huge casino. In a Muslim country, gambling in the form of casino games is forbidden, but some are debating whether a big casino should be built.
As we can see in Dubai with the prohibition of betting at Meydan Racecourse, which is based in Dubai, there is the option to place bets using internet services, which could be beneficial for global online casino brands looking to attract customers from Dubai, but a land-based mega casino may be more difficult to make work. However, there are benefits.
As everyone knows, Dubai is a popular destination for the wealthy and famous. And, if there were a mega-casino, it would almost certainly be visited by this type of customer, who would gladly spend a lot of money. A share of the revenue could then be directed to the government to help continue to improve Dubai and make it an even better place.
Because Dubai is also renowned as one of the most affluent cities on the planet, any mega casino might easily become the best in the world, and surely one of the most modern. While Dubai does not require assistance with tourism, there will surely be more visitors than ever before visiting the new gambling facility.
There are several benefits to having more tourists, and they are not limited to the casino they will visit. There will be more jobs produced. Hotels will have more guests staying. Restaurants will have extra seats, and so on. So, the benefits are plentiful. And this is why Dubai would undoubtedly gain from a huge casino in the future.
At the time of writing, it is something that people may advocate for, but it is unlikely to occur immediately in Dubai. There are proposals to establish casinos on man-made islands nearby, but they will be about an hour away from Dubai. So, for the time being, people interested in casino gaming may have to travel outside of Dubai.
