Chances Prince Rupert

On West 1st Avenue

Chances Prince Rupert stands at 240 West 1st Avenue, Prince Rupert, and its phone number is 250-627-5687. The Province lists it as a community gaming centre. Since February 23, 2025 it has been owned by Gitxaała Enterprises Corporation, the business arm of Gitxaała Nation. A grand reopening followed on May 14, 2026, after more than $2 million in improvements.

Each distance here runs straight between map coordinates; none follows a road route. The centre is 749 km from Vancouver, 813 km from Victoria, 891 km from Kelowna and 496 km from Prince George. Chances Casino Terrace lies 115.4 km away.

Hours and the floor

Hours run on Pacific time. Sunday to Thursday, opening runs from 11:30 AM until 12 AM; Friday and Saturday keep the same 11:30 AM start but close at 2 AM. This guide does not carry holiday hours; for those, consult the venue's own website.

The floor holds 99 slots, two electronic blackjack machines and an electronic roulette wheel. New slot machines and electronic tables came with the improvements before the reopening. There is also a racebook with 14 TV monitors. Bingo runs Wednesday to Saturday, with main games at 6 PM.

This guide lists no live table games or poker room for the centre.
