One of Metro Vancouver’s premier casinos is holding week-long celebrations featuring draws, poker tournaments, and much more!
Last year, Gateway Casinos & Entertainment Limited opened a brand new poker room at Starlight Casino in New Westminster, and they are now celebrating its 1-year anniversary in style!
The celebration kicks off on Thursday, October 24th with the 2nd annual Mayor’s Charity Poker Night.
Local leaders and changemakers will sit down to play in support of their charity of choice. Patrick Johnstone, Mayor of New Westminster, Matt Jarvis, former professional poker player, Stefan Flintoft, BC Lions punter, and Steve Deakin, Canada’s number one ranked pickleball player will join other athletes, entertainers and government officials for an unforgettable night!
Casino guests are invited to come and watch the action beginning at 6:30pm.
“We’re excited to celebrate one year of poker at Starlight Casino with the Mayor’s 2nd Annual Charity Poker Night. Poker has grown tremendously here, thanks to our daily tournaments, the monthly B1G $1k (our biggest buy-in in the province), daily cash games, and our partnership with ‘Greg Goes All In’. Our guests are loving the experience, and it’s been a fantastic first year,” said Saad Fadl-Alla, General Manager of Starlight Casino.
