888 Casino — the veteran operator running since 1997 and now trading publicly as Evoke plc — is on AGLC's register for Alberta's regulated online market, which opens July 13, 2026. In Alberta the market is conducted and managed by the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC), the counterpart to iGaming Ontario, and the site will be available to players across the province including Calgary and Edmonton.
Albertans can expect the brand's in-house, eCOGRA-audited 888 Originals catalogue and its roughly 2,000-game floor once the operator completes its AiGC operating agreement and technical and self-exclusion testing. Registration with AGLC is the first regulatory step rather than a promise of a day-one launch — always confirm the brand on AGLC's current list before depositing.
Alberta becomes Canada's second competitive regulated iGaming market when it opens on July 13, 2026. Reaching launch is a two-step process: an operator first registers with Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC), then signs a commercial agreement with the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC), which conducts and manages the market — the same structure Ontario has used with iGaming Ontario since 2022. 888 Casino has cleared the first step; a firm go-live still depends on that AiGC agreement plus technical and self-exclusion testing. Registered is not the same as live, so the reliable check is AGLC's current list of registered operators.
One of the internet's longest-running casinos, its in-house 888 Originals titles, a roughly 2,000-game library and eCOGRA-audited fairness. Exact game availability, payment methods and any Alberta welcome offer will be confirmed when the province goes live.
Is 888 Casino available in Alberta yet?
Not yet. 888 Casino is on AGLC's register for Alberta's regulated online market, which opens July 13, 2026. Until the operator finalizes its AiGC agreement and passes technical and self-exclusion testing, real-money play is not available in the province — check AGLC's current list before signing up.
