Gambling law in Arkansas: what to know before you go

Arkansas allowed full casino gaming only after voters approved Amendment 100 in 2018, which licensed casinos in four counties. Two of them grew out of racetracks - Oaklawn in Hot Springs and Southland in West Memphis - and the third, Saracen Casino Resort in Pine Bluff, is owned by the Quapaw Nation but licensed as a commercial casino. The fourth license, for Pope County, was repealed by voters in November 2024, so Arkansas casinos number three. All are licensed by the Arkansas Racing Commission.

• Regulator: the Arkansas Racing Commission licenses and oversees all three casinos.
• Minimum age: 21 at every casino and for sports betting.
• Casino types: two racetrack casinos (Oaklawn, Southland) and one stand-alone casino resort (Saracen). No tribal casinos operate on reservation land.
• The Pope County casino license was repealed by Issue 2 in the November 2024 election.
• Sports betting is legal, both retail and online since 2022. Online casino games are not.
