Data Points with Context "Casinos in the World"

The Montreal Casino (French: Casino de Montréal), located on Notre Dame Island in Montreal, Quebec, is the largest casino in Canada. It opened on October 9, 1993, and operates seven days a week, from morning until late night. The casino is housed in two former Expo 67 pavilions within Jean-Drapeau Park on Notre Dame Island—a man-made island in the St. Lawrence River created for the 1967 World’s Fair. It shares the island with the Gilles Villeneuve racing circuit, the Olympic Basin, and an artificial lake with a small beach.Owned and operated by the Société des casinos du Québec (a subsidiary of Loto-Québec), the casino’s profits support the Government of Quebec. By 2019, it employed around 2,800 people. Visitors can access the casino via the De la Concorde bridge from Cité du Havre or by taking public transit to Jean Drapeau Metro station on nearby Saint Helen’s Island and then boarding a connecting bus.Founded in 1992 with a $95 million investment, the Montreal Casino was the first of several casinos established by the Société des casinos du Québec. It replaced the Palais des civilisations, formerly the Quebec Pavilion during Expo 67, and annexed the nearby France Pavilion via a bridge. Upon opening, the casino attracted thousands of visitors and reached 780,000 guests in its first year, initially employing 700 people.The casino underwent significant changes over the years: it expanded in 1993, became a 24-hour facility in 1997, and adopted a non-smoking policy in 2003. A major renovation in 2013 included the addition of a digital wall spanning three floors, created with Moment Factory. In 2014, the casino introduced 'The Zone,' a new interactive gaming area. Following the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the casino adjusted its hours, closing at 3 AM on weekdays and 5 AM on weekends. In 2021, its fine-dining restaurant, L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon, closed permanently.

Taivani or the Taiwan Center, is a restaurant complex, as well as a multifunctional recreation center located in Rinia Park, just south of Skanderbeg Square in downtown Tirana, Albania. Taivani is one of Tirana's most modern and frequented restaurants and spare time facilities. It also includes a well-equipped bowling center and the Regency Casino (one of only a few legally operating in Tirana). It is known as Taivani or 'Taiwan' as it is said to resemble a small island, in the middle of a park.

Casino Velden was opened on July 14, 1950 as the fifth casino in Austria. In the summer of 1974, an open-air play area was set up, initially with two tables. In November 1987 a new construction of the casino began, which was opened on May 26, 1989. The European Poker Championship organized by Casinos Austria has been played in Velden since 2015.
