Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton take the stage at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto

The concerts were part of a grand opening celebration at the resort.
Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto recently celebrated its grand opening of its entertainment space with back-to-back concerts from three-time Grammy Award winner Gwen Stefani and five-time CMA Male Vocalist of the Year Blake Shelton.
Both artists took the stage at the resort’s 5,000-person Theatre, Toronto’s latest live entertainment venue.
Several notable dignitaries attended the weekend celebration, including Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Ontario Minister of Finance Peter Bethlenfalvy, Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) CEO Duncan Hannay and Great Canadian Entertainment CEO Matthew Anfinson.
Anfinson took a moment to share his excitement for the opening by saying, “We are immensely proud of this property, as it has been five years in the making and a $1bn investment to bring it to life. And now with the unveiling of our new 5,000-person Theatre, with incredible shows by superstar performers Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton, we are not just filling a void in Toronto’s entertainment scene; we are creating a dynamic hub for live performances that will resonate far beyond our borders.
“Coupled with our brand-new 400-room hotel, casino, dining venues and special events, we are providing elevated hospitality options and solidifying Toronto’s position as a top-tier destination for tourism and entertainment, and there is still more to come.”
Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto is Vegas-style venue that features 328,000 square feet of gaming space, as well as 145 table games and more than 4,800 slot machines.
Great Canadian currently operates 12 casino resort locations within the province, including the recently opened Pickering Casino Resort Hotel, a 275-room resort just east of downtown Toronto.
