After shutting down on March 13, for safety reasons regarding COVID-19, the Casino de Montreal will reopen to the public as of August 3.
Quebec’s biggest casino will tack on some pretty strict health precautions when its doors reopen.
For starters, the Casino de Montreal will have opening and closing hours instead of being open 24/7. To allow for a “thorough disinfection,” the casino will be open every day from 9 am to 4 am.

“Every effort has been made to ensure your safety and that of our employees,” says the casino’s website. “The protective and preventive measures that we’ve put in place are based on recommendations issued by the Direction de la santé publique du Québec and the Commission des normes, de l’équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST).”
During operating hours, “strict sanitary measures” will be put in place including frequent cleaning and the mandatory use of masks for everyone entering the building. “You must wear a mask or face covering in our establishment,” states the Casino de Montreal website.
Guests will be able to obtain free masks at the door.

Only six sections of the casino will be open each of which will allow up to 250 people at a time.
All of the game’s chips will be disinfected once per day and protective barriers have been installed at various tables and food counters throughout the venue. Guests will also be required to wash their hands upon entering and at certain areas throughout the casino.
Slot machines are available in accordance with physical distancing standards and the number of tables and customers per table will be limited to respect the mandatory distance of two metres between each other. For all table games, players will not be able to touch any gaming equipment, including cards and chips.
Keno and poker games will remain closed for the time being.
“These preventive measures have been put in place for the sake of everyone’s health and safety,” says the website. “Ensuring that our casinos stay safe is a shared responsibility, and we thank you for your cooperation.”

The Société des casinos du Québec is a subsidiary of Loto-Québec, a government of Québec corporation. The Société des casinos du Québec oversees all four government-run casinos in the province of Québec: the Casino de Montréal, the Casino du Lac-Leamy, the Casino de Mont-Tremblant, and the Casino de Charlevoix.
History[edit]
In December 1992, the Quebec cabinet approved and authorized the construction of two government-run casinos: one on Île Notre-Dame, in Montreal, and the other at Pointe-au-Pic in the Charlevoix region.
The creation and management of these government-run casinos was entrusted to Loto-Québec, which subsequently created three subsidiaries: the Société des casinos du Québec Inc., given the responsibility of building the casinos and overseeing their operation, Resto-Casino Inc., which operates the restaurants and bars at the three casinos, and Casiloc Inc., which is in charge of acquiring, building and overseeing casino facilities.
The Casino de Montréal was inaugurated on October 9, 1993, and is located in the former French Pavilion (Pavillon de la France) of the 1967 World Exposition.
In 1994, the Casino de Charlevoix opened its doors in what was once the Manoir Richelieu's summer playhouse located at Pointe-au-Pic.
The Casino du Lac-Leamy was the first of Québec's casinos to be built from the ground up. It was inaugurated on March 24, 1996.
The Casino de Mont-Tremblant was inaugurated on June 24, 2009.[1]
Prior to the opening of the Mont-Tremblant casino, Quebec's three other casinos welcomed some 10.5 million visitors each year.
Mandate[edit]
The Société des casinos du Québec Inc. is entrusted with the mission of constructing and overseeing the management of Québec's casinos.
