If approved, the legislation could unlock up to $70 billion in direct and indirect investments, authorizing the establishment of 61 gaming venues nationwide, including high-end integrated resorts.

Experts emphasize that this investment will fuel a massive economic ecosystem. In mature markets like Las Vegas, gaming typically accounts for only 25-30% of total revenue, with the majority generated by luxury hospitality, conventions, and world-class entertainment. This shift is expected to stimulate sectors such as construction, tech innovation, and marketing, creating thousands of jobs while extending the average tourist stay.

From a regional perspective, tier-one cities like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo are seen as prime targets, yet the bill also aims to boost local economies by redistributing tax revenue across various states to improve infrastructure. Industry analysts believe that by offering a full spectrum of sensory experiences—including 24/7 entertainment and high-end gastronomy—Brazil will effectively differentiate itself from regional competitors and online platforms, cementing its status as South America’s premier leisure destination. While the bill has cleared the Chamber of Deputies, its final implementation awaits a Senate vote and presidential approval.
