What stands behind each door
Four doors open onto a stage with a published capacity. Behind the main entrance at River Cree Resort & Casino, The Venue holds up to 2,500, and every show there is 18+. Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton has a Showroom seating about 500 and a Yuk Yuk's room of about 200. At PURE Casino Yellowhead, the Pearl Showroom takes up to 500 standing. The Social at PURE Casino Edmonton hosts private events of up to 85 guests.
Three doors lead to a room for the night. River Cree has 249 rooms on site. Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton has a 26-room attached hotel, and Starlight Casino Edmonton reaches Fantasyland Hotel indoors through West Edmonton Mall.
Food is listed later than 11 pm at six of the eight. Grand Villa Casino Edmonton's kitchens close by 11 pm, and at Century Mile Racetrack & Casino only the Derby lounge runs later. That door opens instead on a full one-mile racetrack. Grand Villa connects indoors through Ford Hall and the downtown pedway to Rogers Place and MacEwan LRT station. Starlight sits inside West Edmonton Mall itself.
