Zimbabwe Casinos
Tuesday, 17. March 2026
The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you may envision that there might be little appetite for going to Zimbabwe’s casinos. Actually, it seems to be working the opposite way, with the desperate economic circumstances creating a greater ambition to bet, to attempt to find a fast win, a way out of the difficulty.
For most of the citizens surviving on the abysmal local earnings, there are two common styles of wagering, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lottery where the odds of winning are surprisingly low, but then the jackpots are also remarkably large. It’s been said by economists who look at the subject that most do not purchase a ticket with an actual assumption of hitting. Zimbet is centered on one of the national or the United Kingston soccer leagues and involves determining the results of future games.
Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other shoe, cater to the very rich of the society and vacationers. Up till not long ago, there was a extremely substantial vacationing business, based on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated crime have cut into this trade.
Among Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree Casino, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slot machines. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which offer table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer video poker machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the aforestated mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a parimutuel betting system), there is a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Seeing as that the economy has contracted by beyond forty percent in recent years and with the associated deprivation and violence that has cropped up, it isn’t understood how healthy the vacationing industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the in the years to come. How many of the casinos will carry through until things improve is simply not known.
