Is DraftKings Sportsbook live in Vermont?
Yes, DraftKings Sportsbook is live in Vermont. The bookmaker first accepted wagers on January 11, 2024, when Vermont became the 18th state to officially introduce online sports betting.
Clearing the House in March of 2023 before its enactment in June, Bill H127 set the stage for licensing to take place through the end of 2023. DraftKings was able to obtain a license and will operate under the jurisdiction of the Vermont Department of Liquor and Lottery.
As with all the states in the northeast, Vermont sports betting is a huge hit with regular gamblers as well as casual fans. With VT daily fantasy sports and horse racing long being legal, residents of the Green Mountain State already enjoyed a taste of gambling action before, and online Vermont sportsbooks like DraftKings are now a go-to outlet for sports betting now that the state has launched such operations.

College sports betting at DraftKings Vermont
With no professional sports in the state, college sports dominate the landscape. Unfortunately for Vermont bettors, the state government has taken the approach of other states nearby in that it will not allow betting on college games that involve in-state teams.
There is one exception to this, which is out-of-state tournaments, such as March Madness, where you can bet on the beloved University of Vermont Catamounts throughout the tourney.
