There are also luxurious accommodations, fine dining options and live performances.

History and Background

The casino launched in May 2005 and was built as part of a regenerative economic project aimed at supporting the local indigenous community by creating more jobs and bringing in a new revenue stream. This effort came through a partnership between the Brokenhead Ojibway Nation and neighbouring First Nations.

The casino’s goals were twofold: to provide a high-end gambling and entertainment experience and to give the First Nations in that area greater economic independence.

South Beach Casino Manitoba is owned and run by the South Beach Casino and Resort Limited Partnership. This includes the Brokenhead, Black River, Bloodvein, Hollow Water, Little Grand Rapids, Pauingassi and Poplar River First Nations. All seven are from the region of Manitoba, and this unique partnership has been crucial for the casino’s development, where all parties shared equal parts in the attached risks and rewards.

Since then, the partnership has remained vital for making sure the casino’s economic goals are reached while also looking after the community’s needs and upholding the First Nations' cultural values.

The resort has gone through quite a few upgrades since it first opened in 2005. In 2011, the casino saw the opening of its very own hotel, with luxury accommodations that would bring in a whole new set of visitors. This addition also brought it more fine dining options and entertainment venues that could help the casino reach an even broader audience.

The casino’s management team is formed from a mix of both Indigenous and non-Indigenous professionals in the sector. They run the casino on a day-to-day basis while ensuring the venue remains at the top of its game with consistent updates and refurbishments. Their goal remains to make sure South Beach Casino Manitoba is a top-tier gaming resort while sticking to their community goals.
