Zimbabwe gambling dens
Monday, 19. January 2026
The act of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the current time, so you might envision that there might be very little desire for visiting Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it seems to be operating the opposite way around, with the critical market circumstances creating a bigger eagerness to gamble, to try and discover a fast win, a way out of the crisis.
For almost all of the citizens subsisting on the abysmal nearby money, there are 2 popular forms of gaming, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a state lottery where the chances of succeeding are extremely tiny, but then the winnings are also surprisingly large. It’s been said by economists who understand the situation that the lion’s share do not buy a ticket with an actual belief of hitting. Zimbet is centered on one of the national or the United Kingston soccer divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other shoe, pamper the extremely rich of the state and vacationers. Up till a short while ago, there was a considerably big sightseeing business, founded on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected crime have carved into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and one armed bandits, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has just the slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which have 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 slot machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the previously alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there is a total of 2 horse racing tracks in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has deflated by beyond 40% in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and violence that has arisen, it isn’t understood how well the vacationing business which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will survive until things improve is merely unknown.
