The two casino garages

Fallsview Casino Resort has an on-site garage for 3,000+ vehicles, with general parking on level 5 and up. Parking is paid, and the rate is set when the car leaves; it may be higher on holidays, weekends and concert dates. Kiosks on the lobby floor and on the 5th and 7th floors take debit or credit. Overnight parking is allowed. The garage has 10 EV chargers, 4 on P1 and 6 on P5, at hourly rates.

Casino Niagara has a covered self-parking garage with 1,500 spaces, entered from the casino's main driveway. Rates vary and are paid on exit; overnight parking is allowed here too. EV charging is on the 4th floor, with fees. At both garages, parking costs nothing for Momentum Ignite members and above, and for Core members holding a parking offer. Neither casino publishes its rates, so this guide does not print them.

Arriving without a car

Taxis are available, and a Fallsview door attendant can call one. Uber and other ride-hailing apps also serve Casino Niagara. WEGO visitor buses, run by Niagara Parks, operate year-round and are fully accessible. Passes are sold at the Niagara Parks Shop and Welcome Centre at Fallsview.

From Fallsview, a paid incline railway to the Falls starts just past the bus bay. On foot, the Horseshoe Falls are about a 20 minute walk: out the main entrance, down Fallsview Blvd, right on Murray Street, then the Niagara Parkway. At Casino Niagara, the lower-level doors open onto Falls Avenue, across from the railing over the Falls.
