Mexico's largest casinos - TOP-10
How we selected
The Mexican industry is dominated by gaming halls and racino complexes (often with a sports book and bingozones), rather than resort mega-resorts. Therefore, we determine the "largest" according to a set of criteria: (1) the approximate number of slots and the presence of tables, (2) area and multi-level, (3) the status of the flagship of the network and tourist traffic. Slot numbers in Mexico change according to SEGOB resolutions, so we give values for open sources and indicate them as indicative.

Important caveats and methodology
The numbers are indicative. Slot/table parks in Mexico are fluid and dependent on permits, cabinet replacements, and seasonal floor shuffles. We relied on catalogs and pages of operators/guidebooks relevant for October 2025.
Not strict ranking. The items are listed as the "largest/flagship basket" rather than a single-parameter math rating. For example, Jubilee Monterrey is noticeable in area/events, although open catalogs give conservative estimates for slots; but news 2025 confirms the active expansion of the playing area.
Network brands. The largest complexes are often the flagships of the Caliente, PlayCity, Yak/Codere, Big Bola, Emotion networks - this was also taken into account during the selection.
What else to see the player and tourist
Tijuana/Baja California: In addition to Hipódromo, Caliente has "club" venues (such as Club 333) - useful for a "multi-location" visit.
CDMX (capital): dense concentration of halls - from premium PlayCity Antara to multi-storey Casino Life and "hippodrome" Royal Yak; convenient to combine with gastro and shopping routes.
