BCLC has detailed it is ‘thrilled’ after the Cascades Casino in Delta opened its doors to customers for the first time.

The casino, opened in partnership with Gateway Casinos and Entertainment, has created 600 new jobs in Delta and BCLC claims it will provide ‘both great entertainment and economic benefits’ to the city. 

“Offering an innovative gaming experience and access to industry-leading player health resources, Cascades Casino Delta will provide excellent entertainment for our players to enjoy safely,” said Greg Moore, Board Chair at BCLC. 

“At the same time, the casino will provide significant economic benefits to the community in the form of jobs and support for local initiatives and provincial programs through the revenue it generates. We look forward to the ways B.C.’s newest casino will shape the future for the City of Delta and beyond.” 

The casino features 500 slot machines, 18 live table games and four electronic table games, and is inspired by popular entertainment and themed areas. 

Moreover, it comes with BCLC’s GameSense Advisor, which is available to support players by encouraging healthy play. 

“This is a wonderful day for Delta and Gateway. 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 Rob Ward, Chief Operating Officer at Gateway. 

“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.”
