industry association.[1] It was founded in 1994 with the goal of promoting, educating and lobbying[2] on behalf of the gambling industry through education and advocacy. The AGA's offices are located in Washington, D.C.

The AGA addresses federal, legislative, and regulatory issues affecting its members, their employees, and customers, such as federal taxation, regulation, and travel and tourism matters. It also attempts to serve as the gambling industry's information clearinghouse, providing the public timely and accurate data. AGA members include major casino operators, financial and professional service companies, suppliers of gambling products, as well as representatives of state or regional gambling associations.

Each year the AGA sponsors a major gambling trade show, the Global Gaming Expo.
