Age and Photo ID at the Entrance
19 is the minimum age: Ontario's Gaming Control Act, 1992, keeps anyone younger out of a casino. Shorelines Casino Peterborough applies that rule at the entrance. Its guest code of conduct puts the check in four words: "We ID under 30". A guest who looks younger than 30 is asked to show identification.
Carry an original, physical, government-issued photo ID. Those words rule out a photocopy, so bring the document itself. The reason for carrying it at any age is simple: the check depends on how old a guest looks, not on how old they are. Staff may also ask for a second piece of ID. A second card in the wallet covers that request.
House Rules Past the Entrance
At Shorelines Casino Peterborough, smoking and vaping are permitted in designated areas only. Cannabis is banned throughout the grounds. That ban applies to the entire property, not only the gaming floor.
The operator's accessibility policy lets guide dogs and service animals into the public areas. Personal assistive devices are welcome. A guest may also come in with a support person. That person is held to the same rule as everyone else: the 19+ age limit applies.
