Wynn Resorts has secured a licence to operate its Wynn Al Marjan Island resort in the United Arab Emirates.
The General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) issued the accreditation as the property continues its development.
Affiliates of Wynn Resorts, Marjan and RAK Hospitality Holding are jointly leading the project, with the resort set to open in 2027.
“Wynn Resorts thanks the GCGRA for the confidence and trust the licence grant signifies and is proud to be the recipient of the first commercial gaming facility license in the UAE,” the company said in a statement.
“We are underway with the construction of our resort in Ras Al Khaimah and look forward to being a key partner in the development of its tourism economy.”
