How the hours here are drawn

Where the hours come from

Each opening time on this site comes from the casino's own pages and official sources. Some casino sites block automated reading. For those, the facts were read from archived copies of the same pages. Every fact was checked on October 7, 2026.

The age and ID rules come from provincial pages. In B.C., a person must be 19 or older to gamble, and people under 19 may not enter gambling venues. Since June 26, 2023, every person entering a B.C. casino must show government-issued photo ID. Security scans it and checks it against the list of people restricted from entering, such as those enrolled in Game Break.

How a week is drawn

Monday, 12 AM: the week begins at minute zero, and every opening time is counted in minutes from there. A night that runs past midnight is split into two parts, one on each day. At Hastings, Friday 11 AM to 2 AM becomes Friday until 12 AM and Saturday from 12 AM to 2 AM.

Times are Pacific local time, as each casino publishes them. British Columbia keeps Pacific time all year. The last clock change was on March 8, 2026.

The home page has six panels for six hours of the chosen day. Morning is 9 AM, Noon 1 PM, Evening 6 PM, Late 11 PM. Then come 3 AM and Dawn 6 AM, from the night that follows. Each panel lists the rooms open at that hour.

The marks

Open means the published hours cover that moment. In the strip, dense screentone means open. Open until late is used where a room opens at a published time and gives no closing time. Starlight's poker room, Sunday to Thursday from 11 AM, is one. The Cascades Casino Langley poker room, which opens at 9 AM daily, is marked the same way.

Not stated covers a night the published hours leave unclear. Elements Casino Surrey lists Sunday as 24 hours and Monday from 10 AM. Whether its floor stays open past midnight into Monday is not said.

A layer with no hours at all is marked not published. Great Canadian Casino Vancouver and River Rock publish table and poker hours, not floor hours. Parq, Grand Villa, Starlight and Cascades Langley publish no separate table hours. None appears where a layer does not exist: Hastings has no tables and no poker room.

What the drawing cannot show

The strip follows published hours, not holidays or temporary changes. A closure for a day, or a table that shuts early on a given night, does not show in the drawing. Holiday hours should be checked on the casino's own site.

Distances work the same way. Each one is a straight line between map coordinates from OpenStreetMap, computed by the guide. It is not a driving distance and says nothing about travel time.
