New images have been revealed for Al Marjan Island Resort and Casino in Wynn in Ras Al Khaimah which will be the first casino in the UAE. This project is set to launch early 2027 as part of the region’s ventures in the tourism and entertainment category.
The Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort and Casino has proved to be a big investment of about 1. 5 billion US dollars. It will comprise 1,500 opulent rooms, a magnificent theatre for live show, and 24 eateries and bars. The facilities include entertainment for the evenings in terms of laser and light show and also features a luxurious shopping mall for guests and tourists to explore. The casino is expected to be larger than the one in Las Vegas hence enhancing the prospect of the two cities.
The announcement of these plans have caused some spot of interest and some have gone on to call the casino ‘Ras Vegas’, that the current exposure means a new dawn for the UAE, in terms of tourism and entertainment.
Besides, there is the new established General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) of the UAE which would open the way to the legalizing of gaming in the state. It seems to be a long-term goal of the GCGRA, led by Kevin Mullally, a man with 37 years of experience in the field of gaming regulation, to form the image of a socially responsible and well-governed sector. Mullally also has vast experience in legislation, working with international regulatory bodies and police, thus, making him strategically located to steer the formulation of the UAE’s gaming policy.
The Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort and Casino will prove to be a popular destination that has the ability to attract visitors from all over the world; this also represents the UAE entering the legal gaming and luxury entertainment industry.
