Stayed for all 3 shows, all of them were excellent! The singing and dancing were so good. Very friendly staff working in the casino. The bar staff were very friendly as well and the pizza there is phenomenal! I very highly recommend if you're in Dawson City!

Somehow, this fits perfectly. After three weeks of wilderness and canoeing on the Yukon, this is a truly unique experience. The show is very good, and anyone who wants to can even lose their money gambling.

Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Hall is a historic casino and entertainment venue located in Dawson City, Yukon Territory, Canada. Established as Canada's oldest legal gambling hall, it combines elements of gaming, live performances, and Klondike Gold Rush-era ambiance to provide a unique visitor experience. Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Hall was founded in 1971 by the Klondike Visitors Association (KVA), a non-profit organization aimed at promoting tourism in the region. The initiative involved collaboration with a Las Vegas consultant to design the facility, which opened as the country's first legal casino. The building itself dates back to 1901, originally constructed by the Arctic Brotherhood, a fraternal organization prominent during the Gold Rush era. It has since been designated a Municipal Heritage Site, preserving its architectural and cultural significance. The hall's design and programming evoke the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s, a period of rapid economic and social transformation in the Yukon, though the venue itself postdates the rush by several decades. All proceeds from operations are reinvested into the Dawson City community through the the Klondike Visitors Association (KVA). The hall is named after Gertie Lovejoy, a renowned dance-hall performer and entertainer from the Klondike Gold Rush era. Known as "Diamond Tooth Gertie," she earned her nickname by having a diamond embedded between her two front teeth. Table Games: Blackjack, North American Roulette and Red Dog. Poker, slots. Gambling is optional, allowing visitors to focus solely on entertainment if preferred. The venue is renowned for its cancan-inspired performances, featuring high-kicking dancers in period costumes, often led by a portrayal of Diamond Tooth Gertie with powerful vocals and engaging banter. Three distinct shows are presented nightly during peak season. Admission is typically $20 for the shows.

Each show was better than the last. Drinks service was prompt and friendly, dealers at the table were friendly and helpful. It was a warm, welcoming environment and I can't wait to go back

There was only one 8:30pm show so there was no cover charge. The show was heaps of fun and more entertaining than we expected. The venue had a good vibe mixed between the bar, card tables and slot machines.

Most places in Dawson City are walkable. We walked to Diamond Tooth Gertie’s opens at 7:00,3 shows a night, bar, food and casino. Wasn’t sure what to expect after reading reviews. It was a long day we stayed only for 2 shows as all are a different, I read some reviews claiming the shows are more broadway than authentic. I enjoyed the first show as it was related more to the gold rush, the second was more broadway relating to Dawson being referred to the Paris of the north. $20 Canadian to enter which is a season pass so if you’re here more than one night you only pay once. So for the cost the shows are worth it. To enter you can charge your fee, food could also can be charged. Bar was cash only. Heard reviews saying food was not great, we ordered the Schnitzel and a large Cesar and thought they were very good, and priced reasonably.

A big show in a little town with excellent dancers & singers. Gertie and her Gold-rush-Girls put on an excellent performance that lasts about an hour. There’s some audience participation too which adds to the fun element. Drinks are cheap - Gin & Tonic was only CA$6, and beers are cheaper! We weren’t sure what to expect, but it was really great and we enjoyed it. So glad we went!
