Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Hall is Canada’s first and most unique casino . An exciting entertainment experience that features casino gambling, live can-can girls and a complete food and beverage service, all presented in true goldrush Klondike style.
History: The building known as Diamond Tooth Gerties was built in 1910 by the Arctic Brotherhood, as the centre of Dawson’s most important social gatherings. When the KVA took over the building in 1971, it was transformed into the popular casino named after a famous dance-hall queen, Gertie Lovejoy, who received her nickname (Diamond Tooth Gerties) from having a diamond inserted between her two front teeth. Revenue from Gerties is re-invested in the community to preserve history, produce local events and tourist attractions, and to promote the Klondike area.
