Timing Your Northern Lights Casino Visit

Each of these runs on its own schedule at Northern Lights Casino: the Floor Bar, the Deli, the gaming floor, poker and the live tables. Choose a day and a time, and the cabins below show what is open at that moment.

The week in two halves

The gaming floor at Northern Lights Casino keeps two schedules. Sunday to Wednesday, play starts at 9 AM and wraps up at 4 AM. From Thursday to Saturday, the floor runs 24 hours straight. Saturday night is the unknown: the posted hours do not say if the floor keeps going after midnight into Sunday morning. For any time between midnight and 9 AM on Sunday, call the casino first at 306-764-4777.

Saskatchewan keeps Central Standard Time, UTC-6, through the whole year, so clocks in Prince Albert never change. All hours on this page are local. Holiday hours are not posted by the casino, so phone 306-764-4777 ahead of a holiday visit.

Food and a break

Casual fare at the Deli includes items from Kookum's Kitchen. Its hours are 9 AM to 3 AM from Sunday to Wednesday, and it stays open 24 hours from Thursday to Saturday. On those early-week days it shuts an hour ahead of the gaming floor. Spirits and pints are poured at the Floor Bar daily from 10 AM to 2 AM.

Call the main line, 306-764-4777, to place a takeout order. SIGA Rewards cardholders save 10% when ordering from a restaurant or the Deli. No drinks from outside may be brought into the casino, for any reason.

When the tables open

Live table games start at 6 PM and run to 2 AM every day: Crazy 4 Poker, Texas Hold'em and Blackjack. Poker sets its own, earlier start. From Monday to Friday it begins at 5 PM, and on Saturday and Sunday at 3 PM, with a 2 AM close each day. Past 2 AM, it comes down to the gaming floor and, where its hours run that late, the Deli. On Saturday night, call the casino before heading in past midnight.
