Starlight Casino New Westminster - Gaming and Entertainment

Gaming Floor

We operate around the clock, every day of the year. You will find us at 350 Gifford St, New Westminster, BC V3M 7A3, and the gaming floor is fully staffed whether you walk in at lunchtime or step through the doors at 3 AM. In the Greater Vancouver market, this type of true 24 hour schedule is still unusual, and guests pick up on that pretty quickly.

Our floor includes both slot machines and table games. Different configurations are spread across the property, with the classic formats that are standard for a full-service Canadian casino. Exact game counts and current jackpot amounts change often, so the most accurate information sits on starlightcasino.ca. That is where we send regular players before they head over. If you want to double-check that a specific table is open, or you have a question ahead of time, our team is on the phone at 604-777-2946.

There is one piece of practical advice that applies in almost every casino setting. Before you walk onto the floor, decide roughly what you are comfortable spending. It is not a formal rule and we do not police it, but according to standard industry practice it tends to make the whole visit calmer and easier to enjoy.

Planning Your Visit

In our experience, most guests get a smoother visit if they check starlightcasino.ca before leaving home. The site is broken out into promotions, entertainment, dining and gaming, and those sections update on separate timelines. It is better to open each area on its own, rather than assuming one page reflects everything that is happening in the building.

Our daily happy hour runs from 4 PM to 8 PM. Beer, wine and well highballs are offered at reduced pricing during that window, which is in line with how similar venues structure bar programs. Live performances on Fridays and Saturdays usually start at 9 PM and finish close to midnight. If your main reason for coming in is a specific act, a quick call to 604-777-2946 to check capacity is a smart step.

Most visitors find this simple sequence works:

1. Check starlightcasino.ca for the current promotions and the entertainment calendar.
2. If you are planning around a performance, note the Friday and Saturday 9 PM start.
3. Set your navigation to 350 Gifford St, New Westminster, BC. On-site parking is available.
4. Call +1 604-777-2946 ahead of time if you require any accessibility support.
5. Follow our Facebook page “Starlight Casino New Westminster” for last minute updates.

Because we run 24 hours a day, there is no single “cut off” time where you miss the core experience. The gaming layout stays in place regardless of when you arrive, and traffic simply ebbs and flows through the day and night.

Dining and Drinks

RedBar Lounge is located right off the casino floor. Reservations run through OpenTable, which is now common practice across the hospitality industry and makes it easier to align a proper sit-down meal with your gaming session. You can drop in for a quick drink or settle in for a longer night, the room is built to handle both.

Alongside RedBar, we operate a contemporary pub on the property and a few additional lounge-style areas. The intent is casual and straightforward, nothing overly formal. Our daily happy hour from 4 PM to 8 PM covers the core bar categories - beer, wine and well highballs - at reduced prices. Regulars tend to build their visit around that window if drinks are part of the plan.

For corporate groups, private functions or larger parties, we route everything through one contact point: [email protected]. That inbox handles reservations and event requests that go beyond a standard walk-in or small-table booking.

Live Entertainment and Sports

Live entertainment is built into how we run the property, not something that sits on the side. The calendar on the official site is updated on a regular cycle, and Friday and Saturday nights create a clear anchor: performances typically go from 9 PM through to midnight. That timing helps guests plan their evening around both gaming and the show.

Sports are part of the picture as well. Major games are shown on screens around the venue, so certain nights feel closer to a shared event than a standard casino visit. The mix of gaming, live acts and sports viewing in one space is deliberate; when the timing lines up, the building has a very specific energy.

To see what is scheduled, most guests do the following:

1. Visit starlightcasino.ca/entertainment/ from a phone or desktop.
2. Scroll events by date to match your visit.
3. Check starlightcasino.ca/promotions/ for any drink features linked to those nights.
4. Call 604-777-2946 if you want to verify seating or standing room for a particular performance.

Our Facebook page under “Starlight Casino New Westminster” helps fill in the gaps between website updates. We use it for quick announcements, short promotional windows and sports night callouts, which is in line with common practice across our industry.

About the Operation

Starlight Casino New Westminster is part of the Gateway Casinos and Entertainment network. Gateway operates multiple properties across Canada, and our site reflects that shared approach to full-service gaming and hospitality. When you see the gatewaycasinos.ca email domain listed on our promotions or contact pages, that is the connection.

We are also a significant employer in the Lower Mainland region. Positions across gaming, food and beverage, security and general operations appear regularly on platforms such as Indeed. The volume of roles gives a small sense of the scale required to keep a property of this size running day after day.

From a guest perspective, our public footprint covers the official website, OpenTable, TripAdvisor and Facebook. Third-party listings such as casinosbc.com generally carry consistent core details like the address and hours, but we always treat starlightcasino.ca as the single source of truth for promotions and entertainment schedules. Promotional windows can change quickly, and external directories do not always reflect those adjustments in real time.

Accessibility and Guest Support

We follow established accessibility standards and take a structured approach to support. Wheelchairs are available on site, and we can arrange accessible formats and communication supports on request. If you know you will need any of these services, calling +1 604-777-2946 in advance is the most reliable way to make sure everything is ready when you arrive.

The 24 hour operation helps here as well. Quieter periods during the day are often more comfortable for guests who prefer lower crowd levels or a bit more space on the floor. Our staff is on duty at all hours to help with gaming questions, dining arrangements or simply pointing you in the right direction around the property.

Staying Connected

Our primary digital channel is starlightcasino.ca. The site is organized into distinct sections for gaming, dining, entertainment and promotions, and each area is updated on its own schedule. If you want an accurate snapshot of what is available on a specific day, it is worth checking the promotions page separately from the entertainment calendar.

For direct contact, 604-777-2WIN (2946) is the main phone line into the team and usually the fastest way to reach a staff member. Group bookings and event planning inquiries should go to [email protected] so the right people can respond. If you prefer quick updates without checking the site every time, our Facebook page under “Starlight Casino New Westminster” is a simple way to stay connected to what we are doing.
