List of casinos and horse racing tracks in Alberta

This is a list of casinos and horse racing tracks in Alberta. The province of Alberta has given out many licences for small casinos but few have attached hotels and none are major resorts. A partial exception to this rule is the River Cree Resort and Casino which is located on the Stony Plain Indian Reserve and owned by the Enoch Cree Nation (and therefore partially exempt from provincial jurisdiction). In addition to these casinos there are temporary caissons set up during major festivals such as K-Days, large "gaming room" full of VLTs in many bars, and approximately 50 bingo halls[1] throughout the province.
