The Casino Nova Scotia opened a temporary location in the Sheraton Hotel Halifax on June 1, 1995. On April 24, 2000 it moved to a brand new, $100-million 'Vegas-style' facility on the downtown Halifax waterfront. It was originally owned by Caesar's until October 2005, when Casino Nova Scotia was bought out by Great Canadian Gaming Corporation. When the Casino was sold to Great Canadian Gaming the affiliated Sheraton Hotel was sold separately to the Marriott Corporation.[1] In 2007, workers at the casino voted in favor of organizing a labor union.[2]

Casino Halifax

The casino has 650 slots and table games. There is an attached 550-car parkade, including 14 wheelchair-accessible spaces.

The casino is connected via pedway to the Marriott Halifax Harbourfront, formerly the Casino Nova Scotia Hotel and Sheraton Hotel Halifax. The pedway also connects to Purdy's Wharf, Scotia Square, and the downtown core.

Restaurants and lounges[edit]

There are several drinking and dining facilities in the casino, including nightly buffets and Sunday Brunch buffet in the 3Sixty Buffet Restaurant, casual dining and live entertainment in the 3Sixty Lounge, and concerts, conventions and other attractions in the Compass Room and the Schooner room.

Structural engineering[edit]

Engineered by BMR of Halifax, the casino has been described as one of the most complicated in the company's history. The size of the site meant that part of the building was built over water 70 feet deep (at its deepest point). Most of the land that the casino occupies had been created years earlier when that part of Halifax Harbour was infilled with loose rock and excavation material from other construction sites — reclaimed land was too soft to serve as a stable building foundation. BMR overcame the problem by engineering a design which incorporated driving caissons through the fill material and into the bedrock below. Then, using a specially designed doughnut-shaped pile cap as a support system, the engineers worked with the form work contractor to hang the casino's floor structure on the supporting caissons like a huge wharf.[3]

  • PRESS RELEASE

    *FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE*
    CASINO NOVA SCOTIA PRESENTS
    Loverboy
    LIVE AT THE SCHOONER SHOWROOM
    Monday, April 6th at 8pm
    October 16, 2019 – Halifax, Nova Scotia – For more than 30 years, Loverboy has been 'Working for the Weekend' (and on weekends), and Casino Nova Scotia is pleased to welcome them back to the Schooner Showroom on April 6th, 2020.
    With their trademark red leather pants, bandannas, big rock sound and high-energy live shows, Loverboy has sold more than 10 million albums, earning four multi-platinum plaques, including the four-million-selling Get Lucky, and a trio of double-platinum releases in their self-titled 1980 debut, 1983's Keep It Up and 1985's Lovin' Every Minute of It. Their string of hits includes, in addition to the anthem 'Working for the Weekend,' such arena rock staples as 'Lovin' Every Minute of It,' 'This Could Be the Night,' 'Hot Girls in Love,' 'The Kid is Hot Tonite,' 'Notorious', 'Turn Me Loose,' 'When It's Over,' 'Heaven In Your Eyes' and 'Queen of the Broken Hearts.'
    Loverboy went on to win a still-record six Juno awards in 1982, and until a three-year sabbatical in 1989, were one of the Top 5 grossing touring acts in the world, performing in over 100 cities across the U.S. and Canada. Their success made them the first Canadian group ever to earn Columbia Records' exclusive Crystal Globe Award, celebrating the sale of over five million albums outside their native country. Since 1992, the band has maintained a steady road presence, with Sony/Legacy releasing a greatest hits compilation, Loverboy – Classics, in 1993, which went gold five years later. In 2001, the band released a live greatest hits CD, Live, Loud & Loose, which captured the group doing what they do best, entertaining their legion of rabid fans.
    Unfinished Business is the latest Loverboy album released in 2014. The title came from Dean's idea to involve the band's fans in choosing the name of the album in a popular vote on Facebook, where the choices were first winnowed down to 10 and then opened up to Loverboy's followers, who chose Unfinished Business, giving it the most 'likes.'
    'We put the song titles up and explained that this album was 40 years in the making,' says Dean. 'It was a fun thing. Some of the titles they came up with were hilarious, but maybe a little inappropriate for Wal-Mart.'
    More recently, Loverboy has released a trio of singles. These include 2016's 'Hurtin,' and 'Some Like It Hot,' as well as 2017's 'Stop the Rain.' In February of 2017, Dean caught national attention when he announced an opportunity for fans to create the official 'Stop the Rain' music video and win one of his own signed guitars. After many submissions, the band chose David Napolillo's video, and Paul revealed his affinity for science fiction by thanking him for 'Abducting Loverboy into the ‘Alien Hall of Fame.''
    It is Loverboy's reputation as a live act which has always been its calling card, as the group continues to entertain fans of all ages, amazing even Mike Reno.
    'Something's in the water,' he says. 'I go to these concerts expecting there to be 3,000 people, and there's seven or eight thousand people! And most of them are young! Even kiddies, like 10 years old. They even know all the words. It's freaking me out.'
    Perhaps the band's most famous song is 'Working for the Weekend,' which has fueled a generation's dreams of toiling every day for the chance to celebrate come Friday night. Dean realizes it has taken on a whole new meaning these days.
