Getting into Elements Casino Brantford

Getting into Elements Casino Brantford starts with two things: age and photo ID. The check below answers yes or no in a few taps.

The age rule is 19

Ontario law sets the casino age at 19. No one under 19 may enter or stay in a casino. Lottery tickets alone are 18+, so the 19 rule is about casinos and online casino play.

At Elements Casino Brantford, nobody under 19 may enter the casino or its gaming floor at any time, day or night. Restaurants and other amenities on the gaming floor fall under the same rule. A minor cannot go into any of them, even with a parent or guardian who is 19 or older. Being with an adult changes nothing.

Will I get in?

The ID I will carry

    • Under 19: no entry to the casino or the gaming floor, at any time.
    • Minors may not enter any restaurant or amenity on the gaming floor, even with a parent or guardian.
    • Great Canadian checks ID for anyone who looks under 30.
    • ID must be government-issued, with a photo, in its original physical form; a second piece of ID may be requested.
    • A casino break in My PlayBreak bars entry to any Ontario casino for its whole term.

    Which ID to bring

    Great Canadian, the company that runs the casino, checks ID for anyone who appears to be under 30. The ID has to be government-issued, carry a photo and be the original physical card. A picture of the card on a phone does not count, and neither does a photocopy.

    Staff may also ask for a second piece of ID. Bringing a second piece means a request for more ID does not end the visit at the door.

    Other rules at the door

    1. Smoking and vaping are allowed only in designated areas, and cannabis is banned anywhere on the property.
    2. Guide dogs and service animals may enter public areas, and guests may use their own assistive devices, though staff may ask for documentation when an animal's role is not obvious.
    3. Support persons are admitted, but the 19+ age rule still applies to them.
    4. Anyone enrolled in a My PlayBreak casino break is barred from entering any Ontario casino, and the term cannot be cancelled early.

    Arriving at the casino

    The casino is at 40 Icomm Drive, Brantford, ON N3S 7S9, and parking is complimentary. It is always open, 7 days a week, but holiday hours should be checked on the venue's own site. On the gaming floor, non-alcoholic drinks are complimentary and available 24/7, and the selection may vary. A staffed PlaySmart Centre is inside the casino, at 519-752-2950, Sunday to Wednesday 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Thursday to Saturday 11 a.m. to midnight. The main line is 519-752-5004.

    Is a photo of ID on a phone accepted?
    No, the ID must be government-issued photo ID in its original physical form. Bring the card itself, plus a second piece in case staff ask for one.
    Can an 18-year-old go in?
    No, Ontario law sets the casino age at 19, and nobody under 19 may enter the casino or its gaming floor. Lottery tickets alone are 18+, but that does not apply to casinos.
    Can a child wait in the restaurant?
    No, minors may not enter any restaurant or amenity on the gaming floor, even with a parent or guardian who is 19 or older.
    Why would staff ask a 25-year-old for ID?
    Great Canadian checks ID for anyone who appears to be under 30. A 25-year-old falls inside that range, so the request is routine and not personal.
