Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto
This page looks at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto, the casino beside Woodbine Racetrack. It covers who runs it, what sits on the floor, where to eat and sleep, and what to carry to the door.
01
A racetrack star in north-west Toronto
Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto opened on June 20, 2023, at the Woodbine Racetrack site in north-west Toronto. It stands right beside the track. That places it among the guide's racetrack rooms, ten of the 30 mapped. The older Casino Woodbine now goes by the Grandstand Casino.
Like every land-based casino in Ontario, it is conducted and managed by OLG. Day-to-day operations are contracted to a private service provider, here Great Canadian Entertainment. In this guide's night sky, the resort is one star in the Greater Toronto constellation.
