Which Genting casino floors are open now?
SkyCasino is the only Genting casino floor with evidence of being open in 2026. The table lists every floor named in our sources, the most recent dated evidence for each, and who reported it.
| Floor | Status | Latest evidence | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| SkyCasino | Open | 27 Oct 2026 | The Star, incident report2 |
| Genting Casino (new mass floor) | Open when last reported | 30 Dec 2024 | Maybank IB via Inside Asian Gaming4 |
| Hollywood (Genting Casino 2) | Partly reopened; 2026 status unconfirmed | Jan 2025 | Phillip Capital via Inside Asian Gaming5 |
| Circus Palace (Genting Casino 1) | Mostly closed; 2026 status unconfirmed | Jan 2025 | Phillip Capital via Inside Asian Gaming5 |
“Latest evidence” is the date a source saw or reported the floor’s status, not the date we checked. We checked every row on 28 October 2026.
How many casinos are in Genting?
Genting has one licensed casino, run by Resorts World Genting, spread across several gaming floors. Before February 2024 there were three floors: SkyCasino, Hollywood and Circus Palace1. Since then two floors have been confirmed open at some point (SkyCasino and the new Genting Casino), one has been partly reopened (Hollywood) and one has stayed mostly closed (Circus Palace). The honest count for October 2026 is “one to three floors”, depending on what has happened to Hollywood and the new floor since our latest sources.
Why are Hollywood and Circus Palace marked unconfirmed?
Two analyst reports a few weeks apart describe different situations, and nothing newer has been published:
- 30 December 2024: a Maybank analyst visited after hearing the old floors had reopened and found both still closed6.
- About 22 January 2025: Phillip Capital reported that Hollywood was partly reopened ahead of Chinese New Year, with under one third of the former two-floor space open5, while Circus Palace was mostly closed5.
These do not contradict each other: the reopening came three weeks after Maybank’s visit. The problem is what came after. We searched Inside Asian Gaming, GGRAsia, The Star and The Edge for 2026 coverage. The latest result coverage says only that the company carried out selective refurbishment across its facilities3, with no word on either floor. So both are marked unconfirmed for 2026.
What happened to the old Genting casino floors?
The old Genting casino floors closed in early 2024. Resorts World Genting shut Genting Casino 1 (Circus Palace) and Genting Casino 2 (Hollywood) with effect from 28 February 20241, and a shuttle carried guests to SkyCasino. In late 2024 Genting Malaysia told Inside Asian Gaming it would reopen them only if demand was sufficient7.
When did each Genting casino floor open and close?

- 28 February 2024: Circus Palace and Hollywood close1.

How will this tracker be updated?
The Genting floor status tracker changes only when a dated source does. Each row will be updated when a press report, a company filing or the resort’s own casino page (which was under maintenance on 28 October 2026) gives newer evidence. Hours for each floor are tracked separately on Genting casino opening hours. Entry rules apply to every floor; see age and entry and the Genting casino guide.
