Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto

Located in the North York area of Toronto, this 33-acre mega casino just opened in 2023 and has quickly become a go-to spot for the city’s entertainment lovers.

This venue is so large and full of amenities thanks to the $1 billion budget available during construction. Noteworthy features include 4,800 slot machines, 145 table games, and a 400-room hotel (attached).

A 5,000-seat auditorium is another huge draw, featuring a variety of live shows including concerts and stand-up comedy. There is also ample room for your car thanks to a multi-level garage that can accommodate upwards of 3,800 vehicles.

It’s conveniently located beside Woodbine Racetrack, for those who enjoy betting on the ponies. Talks of building a second casino directly adjacent to these locations have been on-and-off, so perhaps the best is yet to come. For those wanting a full casino experience outside a bustling metropolis, this location is for you.

Montreal Casino

Located on Notre Dame Island within Jean-Drapeau Park in Montreal, this 12-acre casino stretches across three interconnected buildings. One of the best things about this location is the number of events including concerts, comedy shows, and dances.

The casino also boasts special events including an annual New Year’s Eve party spanning from the afternoon of December 31st until late morning on New Year’s Day. Other draws include four restaurants, three bars, and even a cabaret.

With over 3,200 slot machines and 115 gaming tables, there’s no shortage of action. There are also separate facilities for Keno-type games as well as virtual and lottery games. Montreal is already a hot vacation destination, and a casino of this size and caliber only adds to the appeal.

Great Canadian Casino Vancouver (Formerly Hard Rock Casino Vancouver)

Located 30 minutes outside Vancouver in Coquitlam, the formerly famous Hard Rock Casino rebranded to the Great Canadian Casino on December 1st, 2023. Great Canadian Entertainment now owns 15 different casinos, including this one and the first casino we mentioned.

Like the Toronto location, one of this casino’s hallmarks is a 1,100-seat theatre with a plethora of concerts, comedy shows, and other events all year round. With over 920 slot machines and 37 live table games, the selection is small compared to others on this list, but it’s still worth a visit.

A restaurant called ‘Gordon Ramsay Burger’ draws a lot of visitors and is one of four restaurants available on site. Another restaurant is called ‘Rock House Grill’, which is an ode to the casino’s former Hard Rock branding.

Fallsview Casino Resort Niagara

Located on the picturesque Fallsview Boulevard near downtown Niagara Falls, this casino is sure to wow you. From a gorgeous view of the ever-popular Horseshoe Falls to a 5,000-seat multipurpose theatre, there’s something for everyone.

In fact, there are two different entertainment venues on site – OLG Stage and Avalon Theatre. The adjoined hotel is also quite upscale however reasonably priced, and there are 24 different dining options ranging from Burger King to 21 Club – the on-site steak and seafood restaurant.

What it lacks in size, it makes up for in elegance, but it’s not exactly a closet either. With 3,500 slot machines and 130 table games spread over 200,000 square feet, the action is non-stop.

River Rock Casino Resort

Located right beside Vancouver International Airport on the Fraser River, River Rock Casino Resort is the perfect clash of convenience and scenery.

As another casino owned by Great Canadian Entertainment, all of the amenities are impressive. Slot machines are plentiful with over 1,100 to choose from, including some of the largest progressive jackpots in the country.

Upwards of 75 live table games and 104 electronic table games are a staple of this facility, and it actually boasts the most Baccarat tables at one location in all of North America. The poker room in particular is quite renowned and regularly hosts large tournaments.
