Mr. Santo also announced that along with Gateway’s signature restaurants, Match Eatery and Public House and Atlas Steak and Fish, the Grand Villa will partner with Vera’s Burger Shack, Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt, Sbarro Pizza and Starbucks.

The project will bring up to 200 new permanent jobs and a $32 million investment to the Edmonton economy. In addition to this long-term investment, the project will result in 450 person-years of construction employment.

On June 15, 2016 from 10:30 a.m. to 3p.m. MDT, Gateway will be hosting another job fair at the Matrix Hotel. Gateway is looking to fill a number of roles including dealers, sous chefs, bartenders, and slot attendants. Interviews will be conducted on site at the Matrix Hotel. More details on the job opportunities are available at http://www.gatewaycasinos.com/gw-careers.

With over 60,000 square feet of entertainment space, 24 gaming tables and 600 slots, the Grand Villa will be an exceptional addition to Edmonton’s vibrant and rejuvenated downtown. A grand opening is scheduled for fall 2016.
