Fantasy Sports Business Analysis Report 2024-2030: Technological Advancements in AR and VR, & Rising Demand for Interactive and Engaging Fan Experiences Spurs Growth
The “Fantasy Sports – Global Strategic Business Report” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets offering.
The global market for Fantasy Sports was estimated at US$24.2 Billion in 2023 and is projected to reach US$61.2 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14.2% from 2023 to 2030. This comprehensive report provides an in-depth analysis of market trends, drivers, and forecasts, helping you make informed business decisions.
The growth in the global fantasy sports market is driven by several key factors, including the rising number of sports enthusiasts, increasing smartphone penetration, and the emergence of new sports formats. One of the primary growth drivers is the expanding global sports fan base, with sports leagues like the NFL, NBA, and IPL attracting millions of followers across multiple regions.
Fantasy sports platforms capitalize on this fervor by allowing fans to engage with their favorite leagues in a more interactive manner. The ability to draft real-world players, make roster changes, and track player performances in real-time creates a sense of ownership and control that traditional sports viewership does not offer. This enhanced engagement is converting casual viewers into active participants, thereby expanding the fantasy sports market. Additionally, the increasing number of sports broadcasts and live streaming options is making it easier for fans to stay updated with player performances and match outcomes, further fueling the popularity of fantasy sports.
Another critical growth driver is the rising penetration of smartphones and mobile internet, which has made fantasy sports more accessible to a wider audience. Mobile apps have become the primary medium for fantasy sports participation, offering a seamless experience with real-time notifications, easy team management, and social features. The rise of daily and weekly fantasy sports formats has also contributed to market expansion, as these formats provide a faster and more flexible gaming experience compared to traditional season-long leagues.
Moreover, the growing popularity of new sports such as esports and mixed martial arts (MMA) is providing additional avenues for fantasy sports platforms to diversify their offerings and attract new user segments. Fantasy esports, in particular, is gaining momentum as it taps into the burgeoning gaming community, which shares a similar demographic with fantasy sports users. As technological advancements continue to enhance user experience and as the regulatory environment becomes more favorable, the global fantasy sports market is expected to witness sustained growth, driven by increased user engagement, diversified offerings, and broader market reach.

The brand operates alongside two sister sites, Rose Casino and O’Reels, which also serve UK audiences and share the same commitment to high-quality entertainment, strong user experience and robust responsible gaming standards.
Play’n GO has been one of the leading game suppliers in the UK for many years and is steadfast in its commitment to regulated markets globally.
Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer of Play’n GO, said:
“We are delighted to launch with Ivy Casino in the UK who, like us, are focused on all the key elements of operating within a regulated market framework. I’m sure this is just the beginning of a long and fruitful partnership.”

Esportes da Sorte strengthens brand presence during New Year’s Eve celebrations across four Brazilian capitals
Esportes da Sorte, one of Brazil’s leading online betting platforms, will be the official sponsor of New Year’s Eve celebrations in four Brazilian capitals: Salvador, Recife, Natal and Maceió. The initiative reinforces the brand’s growing presence in the national cultural calendar and its strategy to connect with large-scale public celebrations beyond the digital environment.
New Year’s Eve is one of Brazil’s most significant annual moments, marked by intense domestic travel, international tourism and mass public participation. By supporting celebrations in four key destinations, Esportes da Sorte aligns its brand with tradition, culture and shared experiences that resonate deeply with local communities.
“Sponsoring New Year’s Eve celebrations in four capitals reflects our commitment to being present in moments that bring people together,” said Marcela Campos, Vice President of the Esportes Gaming Brasil Group, owner of the Esportes da Sorte brand. “Supporting these cities means valuing their cultural identity, strengthening local ecosystems and celebrating the people who keep these traditions alive year after year.”
Across all four capitals, the brand will activate its presence through immersive experiences, public-facing activations and the distribution of branded giveaways — a hallmark of Esportes da Sorte’s engagement strategy at major events. The activations are designed to enhance the festive atmosphere while reinforcing the brand’s connection with culture, entertainment and responsible enjoyment.
The New Year’s Eve sponsorships build on Esportes da Sorte’s broader cultural engagement strategy, which includes long-standing support for large-scale events such as Carnatal, in Rio Grande do Norte — a key fixture in the state’s tourism and cultural calendar. Together, these initiatives reflect the company’s commitment to expanding its footprint in cultural sponsorships nationwide.
Esportes da Sorte’s participation also mirrors a wider trend within Brazil’s regulated betting market, as operators increasingly diversify their sponsorship portfolios beyond football. Music, festivals and cultural celebrations have become strategic platforms for brands seeking broader visibility, deeper community ties and more sustainable engagement with the public.
