Wyoming Casinos Map
Wyoming has just four full casinos, all tribal and all on the Wind River Reservation in the center of the state, run by the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes. Away from the reservation, casino style gambling takes a different form: historic horse racing parlors, where slot like terminals run on the results of past races, operate in the larger cities. This Wyoming casinos map shows where both sit, from the Wind River casinos near Riverton and Lander to the parlors in Cheyenne, Casper, and beyond. The minimum age is 18 for the parlors and for sports betting.

How casinos are spread across Wyoming
Wyoming’s full casinos sit in one place. All four are tribal, clustered on the Wind River Reservation in the center of the state in and around Riverton, Ethete, and Lander, where the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes run them. The Northern Arapaho operate three floors, led by the Wind River Hotel & Casino near Riverton, and the Eastern Shoshone run the Shoshone Rose near Lander. This central reservation is the one part of Wyoming with a true casino floor, and Wind River is the only one with a full pit of table games and a sportsbook.
Everywhere else, the gambling that looks like a casino is historic horse racing. The state has no commercial casinos, but a 2013 law let licensed horse racing operators run terminals that play on the outcomes of past races, and those machines look and feel much like slots. Two operators, Wyoming Downs and 307 Horse Racing, run parlors in the larger cities that have no tribal casino, including Cheyenne and Laramie in the southeast, Casper in the center, Gillette and Sheridan in the northeast, and Rock Springs and Evanston in the southwest. For most Wyoming residents, the nearest machine gambling is one of these parlors rather than a reservation casino hours away.

§ Casinos by region
The hub’s routing job. Wyoming’s casino gambling falls into two parts, the reservation casinos and the historic horse racing cities, each linking down to its town and casino pages as they come online.
The Wind River Reservation Riverton, Lander, and Ethete
The state’s only full casinos sit together in central Wyoming. The Northern Arapaho run the Wind River Hotel & Casino near Riverton, the largest in the state and the one with a table game pit and a sportsbook, plus the smaller 789 Smoke Shop & Casino at Riverton and Little Wind at Ethete. Nearby at Lander, the Eastern Shoshone run the Shoshone Rose Casino & Hotel. For a casino trip in Wyoming, this central reservation is the destination.
Historic horse racing in the cities Cheyenne, Casper, Gillette, and beyond
The populous southeast and the energy cities have no tribal casino, so machine gambling there means a historic horse racing parlor. Wyoming Downs and 307 Horse Racing run them in Cheyenne and Laramie in the southeast, Casper in the center, Gillette and Sheridan in the northeast, and Rock Springs and Evanston in the southwest. They offer the slot like terminals and simulcast race betting, not a full casino floor, and they are regulated as pari-mutuel wagering.
Casino laws and minimum age in Wyoming
Wyoming has no commercial casinos. Full casino gaming exists only on the Wind River Reservation, run by the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes under federal law and compacts with the state, which is why Wind River can offer machines, live table games, and a sportsbook while the rest of the state cannot. Off the reservation, the legal path to machine gambling is historic horse racing. Under a 2013 law, licensed horse racing operators may run terminals that wager on the outcomes of past races, overseen by the Wyoming Gaming Commission, which also handles live and simulcast racing, bingo, pull tabs, calcutta, and skill based amusement games. The commission does not regulate the tribal casinos, which fall under tribal and federal authority.
The minimum age is 18 for the historic horse racing parlors and for pari-mutuel betting, and the state set 18 as the age for sports betting as well, though some sportsbook apps enforce 21. The tribal casinos set their own floor age, commonly 18 in Wyoming, so confirm at the specific casino. Hours vary, and Wind River runs around the clock, so check the official site and confirm the current age and rules before planning around them, since policies can change. Wyoming also points players to problem gambling help alongside the national resources.
Dated fact Wyoming’s only full casinos are the four on the Wind River Reservation; elsewhere, machine gambling is historic horse racing regulated by the Wyoming Gaming Commission, and the age is 18 for the parlors and sports betting. Verified May 2026. This is the kind of figure to recheck before relying on it.
Historic horse racing, Wyoming’s other casino
Outside the reservation, the machines that fill the role of a casino in Wyoming are historic horse racing terminals. They look like slot machines and play much like them, but each result is tied to a real horse race run in the past, which is how they fit the state’s pari-mutuel framework. Wyoming Downs and 307 Horse Racing operate the parlors, branded as off track betting and gaming rooms, in the cities without a tribal casino. For a visitor in Cheyenne or Casper, this is the practical answer to where the nearest machine gambling is. What these parlors do not have is a full casino floor with live dealers, which in Wyoming exists only at Wind River.
Tribal gaming on the Wind River Reservation
All four of Wyoming’s casinos are tribal, shared between the two nations of the Wind River Reservation. The Northern Arapaho Tribe runs three, the Wind River Hotel & Casino near Riverton along with the smaller 789 Smoke Shop & Casino and Little Wind at Ethete, while the Eastern Shoshone Tribe runs the Shoshone Rose near Lander. Because the reservation is in the center of a large, lightly populated state, these casinos draw from a wide area rather than a single nearby city, and Wind River in particular has built itself into the state’s one full resort casino with a hotel, dining, table games, and a sportsbook.
Wyoming’s biggest casino
The Wind River Hotel & Casino near Riverton is the largest casino in Wyoming and the only one that plays like a Las Vegas floor, with more than 800 machines, a pit of live table games including blackjack, craps, and roulette, a sportsbook, and a hotel. No other venue in the state, tribal or parlor, offers live table games. The Shoshone Rose near Lander is the next largest with a few hundred machines and a hotel. Machine and table counts shift over time, so any figure is dated on the property’s own page rather than fixed here.
Sports betting in Wyoming
Wyoming legalized sports betting in 2021, and it did so for online betting, so the main way to bet is through licensed mobile apps that work anywhere in the state rather than at a counter. The Wind River casino also runs a retail sportsbook on the reservation. The state set the minimum age at 18, in line with the rest of Wyoming gambling, although several of the national apps choose to enforce 21. For a visitor that means you can bet from your phone across Wyoming once you are within the state and registered.
