Casinos in Europe had been leading the way in reopening following initial lockdowns due to the Covid-19 pandemic, for the rest of the world. While venues in many Asian jurisdictions remained closed under conservative lockdown regimes and numbers in Vegas remained low, European casinos began to open in the summer, seeing a recovery in visitor numbers and spending.
But countries across the continent have rowed back and included both casinos and other gambling venues in new lockdown measures following rises in the number of Covid-19 cases. Between them you can name Latvia, Lithuania and Greece have closed casinos and betting shops again, joining England, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and Italy.
The strongest one until now has been the Lithuania’s government who has announced a temporary lockdown until December 6. Greece has suspended land-based gambling under a new lockdown but until November 30, affecting former OPAP stores, gambling halls and street vendors that sell Hellenic Lotteries products.
