Late Friday afternoon, the Ontario government announced it is removing capacity limits for indoor concert venues.

That’s music to the ears of Robert Mitchell, the director of communications and public affairs for Gateway Casinos, which operates Casino Rama and several other casinos.

“Obviously, this is exciting news for us. We want to make it happen as soon as possible, but there are no firm dates,” he said.

“There are a lot of moving parts to this, we need to find out what talent is out there and when we can bring them to the venue. For a long time now entertainers themselves have been evaluating where they can play and under what restrictions.”
