Casino Niagara has over 1,300 slots and over 40 table games, as well as sports betting. It is the second casino to open in Ontario and the first to feature electronic roulette. With a prime location beside Clifton Hill, it was originally conceived as a temporary facility until Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort opened but has remained open as a permanent facility. It opened on December 9, 1996, on the site of the former Maple Leaf Village amusement park.
