Riverboat Casinos in Mississippi

The casinos in Mississippi are all located on riverboats. Mississippi was the third state to legalize riverboat gambling when it was approved by that state’s legislature in 1990. The law restricts Mississippi casinos to coast waters (including the Bay of St. Louis and the Back Bay of Biloxi) along the Mississippi River and in navigable waters of counties that border the river.

State law also requires that Mississippi riverboat casinos be permanently moored at the dock and they are not permitted to cruise. This allows the riverboats to offer 24-hour dockside gambling. The Isle of Capri in Biloxi was the first casino to open on August 1, 1992, followed one month later by The President.

Since the law does not require that the floating vessel actually resemble a boat, almost all of the casinos in Mississippi are built on barges. This gives them the appearance of a land-based building, rather than a riverboat.

Due to the destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, the state legislature allowed Mississippi casinos in the gulf coast to be rebuilt on land within 800-feet of the shoreline and some casinos in Mississippi have been rebuilt in that manner.
