Gateway Casinos & Entertainment Limited (Gateway) has officially opened Cascades Casino Delta (Cascades). The new casino represents an investment of $99.3 million in Delta and the creation of hundreds of new jobs.

The casino complex spans 160,000 sq ft of floor area, including a 42,000 sq ft casino floor with 500 slot machines, 18 live table games, and four to six electronic table games. Attached to the casino building is a five-storey hotel with 124 guest rooms, plus meeting and conference space. EllisDon was the general contractor.

“This is a wonderful day for Delta and Gateway Casinos.  I am proud to say, despite the challenges of the pandemic over the last two and a half years, we finally reached our destination,” said Gateway’s chief operating officer, Rob Ward. “This new property is testimony to the resiliency and determination of a great many people who kept their focus and worked hard together to create a state-of-the-art entertainment destination for the City of Delta.”

The signature restaurant brand, MATCH Eatery & Public House, offers the welcoming, family-friendly experience of a neighbourhood pub with the high energy and excitement of a sports bar, plus live entertainment and multi-season patio spaces.

Cascades also features the Buffet which provides a unique combination of excellent food at value pricing, with an entertaining and family friendly atmosphere. Rounding out the amenities is a new state-of-the-art 5,000 sq. ft ballroom that converts into three conference separate spaces.

Cascades Casino Delta is Gateway’s sixth Cascades-branded casino, including three locations within BC in Langley, Kamloops, and Penticton. Within Metro Vancouver, it also owns and operates Grand Villa Casino in Burnaby, and Starlight Casino in New Westminster.

Gateway currently owns 27 gaming properties across British Columbia, Ontario, and Alberta, including about 14,000 slots, more than 80 restaurants and bars, and close to 600 hotel rooms.
