The racetrack around the slots

The slots share the property with a harness racetrack. Harness racing has drawn families there for five decades, and Kawartha Downs marked its 50th anniversary in 2022. Racing runs in a summer season, with the schedule on the harness racing page of kawarthadowns.com. Admission to the races is free.

On the slots floor, the Player's Lounge and Café offers light refreshments, a casual menu and a fully licensed bar. The Grandstand Dining Room is on the second floor of the grandstand; its buffet is served only in the racing season. Kawartha Downs also rents the Event Centre for weddings, parties and corporate events, plus The Loft, a renovated private room.

The record since 1999

  1. 1960sNight racing under arc lights; the first "B track" to race at night.
  2. 1999The gaming site at Kawartha Downs opens in November.
  3. 2019OLG launches the Optional Slots at Racetracks Program.
  4. 2022Kawartha Downs marks its 50th anniversary.

The gaming site at Kawartha Downs first opened in November 1999. Racing at the track is older, going back to the annual fall fair. Every form of casino gaming in Ontario falls under OLG, which conducts and manages it. Daily operation of each site belongs to private service providers, and the AGCO acts as their regulator. Here the slots run under OLG's Optional Slots at Racetracks Program, launched in 2019.

R-08 · Online and help

Online play in Ontario

The regulated online gambling market in Ontario opened April 4, 2022; iGaming Ontario handles conduct and management, and the AGCO regulates. Ontario allows a private online casino only when two requirements are met: AGCO registration, plus a signed iGaming Ontario operating agreement. The igamingontario.ca directory lists every regulated site. OLG, the provincial agency, runs OLG.ca as its online casino. A player must be at least 19 and must be located in Ontario during any online session.

One person can use BetGuard (betguard.ca) to bar themselves from each regulated Ontario online gambling site, OLG.ca among them. Paid links in this guide bear the Ad mark and go to a partner running a private online casino for adults in Ontario. That partner, which is not OLG.ca, pays the guide a commission.
