As of my last update in early 2023, sports betting is legal in Virginia, and residents can bet on sports online. The Virginia legislature passed a bill legalizing sports betting in March 2020, and the first online sportsbooks began operating in January 2021.

In Virginia, sports betting is regulated by the Virginia Lottery. To place bets online, residents must be at least 21 years old and physically located within the state borders when placing their wagers, thanks to geolocation technology used by the sports betting operators to ensure compliance with state law.

Multiple sportsbooks are available to Virginia residents, including well-known brands such as DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and William Hill, among others. These platforms offer a variety of sports to bet on, including professional and college sports, as well as different types of bets like spread bets, moneyline bets, over/under bets, and props.

Please note that the information provided here is subject to change, and it’s important to verify the current legal status and available operators in Virginia before engaging in online sports betting. Always ensure that you are using legal and regulated platforms to place your bets.
