What is the Galaxy Macau casino?

The Galaxy Macau casino is part of the resort that Galaxy Entertainment Group1 calls its main earner. The group says Galaxy Macau earned HK$20.3 billion in net revenue for January to June 2026, 6% higher1, and HK$9.9 billion in the second quarter. The resort’s opening date is not confirmed4 in the sources we read.

How big is the Galaxy Macau casino?

Floor size is unconfirmed1, because Galaxy does not publish table or slot counts in its results. What it does publish is volume. In the first half of 2026 the casino reported a mass-table win rate of 30.8% of table drop1.

That figure measures how much of the chips bought at mass tables the casino kept. It is not the house edge on each bet, so do not read it as your odds at a table.

The resort’s hotel side is large: nine hotels, 99% occupied1 in the first half of 2026.

What is new at Galaxy Macau?

Two changes matter to casino visitors:

  1. Capella: 95 suites and penthouses, open since 10 February 20261.
  2. Horizon Plus, Galaxy’s high-end gaming room, now has ten private salons instead of six1.

Galaxy is also fitting out a neighbouring project. Cotai Phase 4 is about 600,000 sq m with five hotels, a 5,000-seat theatre and a casino, targeted for 20271. It is a separate development from the current resort.

How does Galaxy Macau compare with MGM Macau?

Galaxy reports in much larger numbers than MGM Macau: HK$20.3 billion in half-year net revenue for Galaxy Macau, against about HK$3.5 billion in one quarter for MGM MACAU. The two groups report on different bases, though, so treat the comparison as rough. For a trip closer to home, see the Genting casino guide.
