Virginia has only in recent years started thawing off its stance on gambling. In 2020, state lawmakers passed a bill legalising land-based gambling operations, whereas, in 2021, the state opened for (online) sports betting. However, Virginia is yet to open its first land-based casino, while currently, there is no mention of legalising online casino-style gambling. At this moment, Virginians can enjoy only a couple of gambling activities online, in addition to visiting social and sweepstakes casino.
