Cascades Casino – Kamloops’ entertainment destination

Sep 12, 2017 | 1:12 PM

Used to be when you saw the word “Casino” there was only one thought in mind. But now, it’s a different story. And Cascades Casino in Kamloops is a perfect example. Located conveniently at 1555 Versatile Drive in Kamloops, it’s a whole lot more than a casino.

Billed as Your Kamloops Entertainment Destination, Cascades Casino provides the whole gamut of entertainment, and General Manager Robert Case says it really is an entertainment destination. “You can participate in the gaming, and we have over 450 slot machines, 15 tables, and a poker room”, he says, “so we cover the gaming part of the operation extremely well. It’s a great atmosphere, and our customers love the ambience we provide.”

But don’t think that’s all. Maureen Boynton, the Manager of Guest Services and Marketing, says the gaming is only part of the entertainment destination experience. “We have three great places to eat within our complex. We have live entertainment in all our facilities “, Boynton adds, “and you never know what to expect. Elvis or ABBA could be in the building, we have comedy nights, and there’s never a cover charge at any of these events.”

In fact, if you go to the Cascades Casino web page (cascadescasinokamloops.com), it’s the food, the entertainment and the fun that are front and center. “It’s important to us to let people know there’s so much to do here,” says Case. “Whether you’re looking for weekend enjoyment, great food, a place to dance, have a glass of wine, watch the Blue Jays or the Seahawks on the big screens, it’s all here.”

You feel the great ambience as soon as you walk in the front doors. A big display TV greets you as you walk down the hall to the restaurants on one side and the casino on the other. It’s a wide open space that you can walk down in comfort, picking your options as you go. First of all, there’s Match Eatery & Public House, a casual modern pub-style eatery with lots of TV’s, great food and a great atmosphere. For a great time with friends as you enjoy some fun times together, Match is the place to be. Join the Football Club in Match. Not only can you watch all of your favourite NFL games there, you could win a trip to Super Bowl 52 and NFL jerseys & gear are given away each day football is on. Included in your $85 membership to the Gateway Football Club   is a Bud, a select appy and other discounts and prizes each week. The big screen TVs put you right in the middle of the action.

Case says this is elevated  dining at its best. “We put a lot of effort into the atmosphere and the experience for our customers”, he says. “Our service isn’t easily matched, and we’re proud to offer a service that our customers tell us they don’t often get elsewhere.”  Reservations are highly recommended.  Atlas is open Tuesday- Sunday from 4:30 PM on.

Boynton says there are many other services as well. “We have our Encore Rewards card that provides special dining discounts and a number of special benefits, and as well, we have a free shuttle that stops at two different spots around town so if you’re staying in Kamloops, you can get to the Casino with a minimum of effort.” And if you do bring your car, there’s free valet service on site.
