Massachusetts Casinos Map: 3 Casinos in Massachusetts, by City

Gambling law in Massachusetts: what to know before you go

Massachusetts legalized casinos with the Expanded Gaming Act of 2011, which allowed up to three resort casinos in different regions and a single slots parlor. Today Massachusetts casinos include Encore Boston Harbor in Everett, MGM Springfield in the western part of the state, and Plainridge Park in Plainville, a slots parlor at a harness racing track. The resort license for the southeast has never been awarded. In Taunton, the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe runs a smaller slots-only gaming venue, First Light, while it works toward a full resort.

• Regulator: the Massachusetts Gaming Commission licenses the commercial casinos and sports wagering; the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe's Taunton venue operates as tribal gaming.
• Minimum age: 21 at all casinos and for sports betting.
• Casino types: two resort casinos, one slots parlor at a racetrack, and a tribal slots venue in Taunton.
• Sports betting is legal, both retail (since January 2023) and online (since March 2023). Online casino games are not.
