The MotorCity Casino was operating at a very small 12.5% capacity. From that point on, only as many as 100 people could gather in space. The casinos reopened again near Christmas. However, a spike in cases resulted in another shutdown in November. The reopening of the venues coincided with the start of sports betting as it was launched in the state just five days before reopening. The casinos were closed for almost five months, which resulted in millions in revenue losses. In Detroit, the casinos were allowed to reopen under a directive made by Governor Gretchen Whitmer in August. It was expected that the closures would just last a few weeks, but instead, in some areas, they lasted for months. When the COVID-19 pandemic first began, casinos in Detroit as well as around the United States shut down. The restaurants of the casinos can now function at 50% capacity. The decision was made to increase capacity in several areas, including restaurants and sporting events in the state. The MotorCity Casino, MGM Grand Detroit, and the Greektown Casino can operate at 30% capacity on the gaming floor. Starting today, the capacity restrictions at casinos located in Detroit will ease up just a bit.
