Free in the evening
Slots run from 9:30 AM until 3 AM, Sunday to Thursday. On Friday and Saturday nights they stay on until 4 AM, which falls early the next morning. Rapids Showroom & Lounge keeps one schedule all week: 9:30 AM to 2 AM.
Live tables follow a split timetable, so the day matters. Monday to Wednesday they open at 4 PM and close at 2 AM. Thursday to Saturday they open earlier, at 2 PM, and run until 3 AM. Sunday is 2 PM to 2 AM.
Poker cash games start at 6 PM every night. On Fridays the game is $2-$5. Fixed poker room hours are not published, so the casino asks players to call (780) 790-9739, extension 105.
Free in the early morning
After the slots close at 3 AM, or 4 AM on Friday and Saturday nights, no published hours run. The tables and the lounge close at the same hour or earlier. The next published opening is 9:30 AM.
At 9:30 AM the slots and the lounge open together, and breakfast mains start at the same time. Breakfast runs until 3:00 PM. Lunch favourites are served from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Dinner service hours are not published. For someone free at dawn, that leaves a gap: the first service of the day starts at 9:30 AM.
Getting there without a car
RMWB Transit runs an On Demand service with a Downtown zone. On weekdays it runs in the evening only, 6 PM to 10 PM. Saturday and Sunday hours are 6 AM to 10 PM. Rides are booked by app, at rmwb.ca/OnDemand, or through Pulse at 780-743-7000.
