Great Canadian Entertainment completes sale of River Rock Casino Resort
The British Columbia resort has been sold to a partnership formed by Petroglyph Development Group and Musqueam Capital Corp.
Canada.- Great Canadian Entertainment has announced the closing of the sale of River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond, British Columbia. It has been sold to a partnership formed by Petroglyph Development Group (PDG), a wholly owned corporation of Snuneymuxw First Nation, and Musqueam Capital Corp (MCC), the economic development arm of Musqueam Indian Band.
River Rock Casino Resort opened on June 25, 2004, and is located along the Fraser River. The venue features over 1,200 slot machines and electronic table games, more than 80 live table games, a live racebook, and a poker room. It also offers nearly 400 hotel rooms, a theatre, a marina, 10 food and beverage venues, and a spa.
In November 2025, the Musqueam Indian Band reached an agreement in principle to partner with Snuneymuxw First Nation in its move to acquire River Rock Casino Resort. Musqueam already owns the land that River Rock operates on.
The closing of the sale follows PDG’s acquisition from Great Canadian of Casino Nanaimo, Elements Casino Victoria, Chances Maple Ridge, and Great Canadian Casino Vancouver.
Matt Anfinson, CEO of Great Canadian Entertainment, said: “River Rock Casino Resort is one of the most successful and iconic gaming and hospitality destinations in Canada. We have full confidence in PDG’s and MCC’s collective leadership and long-term vision for River Rock and the community it serves. We look forward to watching River Rock and its team members continuing to thrive while contributing to the economic success of the Snuneymuxw First Nation and Musqueam Indian Band.”
