May Gambling Revenues Show Stability In Shreveport And Bossier

Gambling revenues for the casinos in Shreveport and Bossier City hold steady from April to May.

The Gaming Control Board reports nearly $42 million in total revenues for the local boats in May. This is about the same as the April number, but still far off from the $57 million the area casinos brought in during March which was an extremely successful month for the local casinos. The gambling revenues in May of last year hit close to $45 million. So this number for 2025 is down about 7% from a year ago.
