As first reported in May 2024, it appears Innisfil’s casino will be on the move.
Currently located at 7485 5th Sideroad, just outside the Barrie city limits, Gateway Casinos and Entertainment “purchased a 25-acre parcel of land at 239 Reive Blvd., home to the former Innisfil Creek Golf Course, with plans to move its gaming operations there” in January 2028 once the new facility is ready.
Gateway, a company based in British Columbia, took over the casino at Georgian Downs in July 2018, as one of its 31 casinos across Canada.
It was confirmed that the relocation would not affect the town’s revenue-sharing agreement with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG), from which the town has received “more than $107 million in cash benefits from hosting, including nearly $7 million since 2018.”
