The Northline experience
Your first casino visit in Airdrie, Alberta.
Choose one game guide and take in the basic rules, terms and pace before you arrive. On the floor, give yourself time to look around and ask staff about anything you do not understand. A guide describes a game type rather than confirming that it will be available, so check with the venue if you have a particular game in mind.
Airdrie, Alberta, is north of Calgary and near Century Downs in Balzac. Calgary’s casino properties are separate destinations, while Century Downs is a Rocky View County racing and casino venue; this guide keeps those civic boundaries visible.
