Melco Resorts Plans Closure of Grand Dragon Casino, Three Mocha Clubs in Macau by 2025

Melco Resorts & Entertainment has announced it will cease operations of the Grand Dragon Casino and three Mocha Clubs in Macau by the end of 2025 as part of its strategic development plan and compliance with Macau law. Employees from these venues will be reassigned to other Melco properties in Macau to maintain job security, while gaming equipment will be relocated to other company casinos. Melco is also seeking government approval to continue operating three additional Mocha Clubs beyond December 2025, contingent upon regulatory compliance. This restructuring aligns with Macau's updated gaming regulatory framework, which affects satellite casino operations and investor roles starting in 2026. Melco emphasizes that these changes reflect a focus on resource optimization rather than reducing overall gaming capacity in Macau. The company remains committed to maintaining a strong presence in the evolving Macau gaming market.
