How to Road Trip the Yukon on a Budget (Updated 2025)

"I spent an evening at Diamond Tooth Gertie’s Gambling Hall (Gertie’s) for casino games, the bar, and the nightly can‑can dance shows—it's the go‑to spot in Dawson for a fun night out." - Matthew Kepnes

Most places in Dawson City are walkable. We walked to Diamond Tooth Gertie’s opens at 7:00,3 shows a night, bar, food and casino. Wasn’t sure what to expect after reading reviews. It was a long day we stayed only for 2 shows as all are a different, I read some reviews claiming the shows are more broadway than authentic. I enjoyed the first show as it was related more to the gold rush, the second was more broadway relating to Dawson being referred to the Paris of the north. $20 Canadian to enter which is a season pass so if you’re here more than one night you only pay once. So for the cost the shows are worth it. To enter you can charge your fee, food could also can be charged. Bar was cash only. Heard reviews saying food was not great, we ordered the Schnitzel and a large Cesar and thought they were very good, and priced reasonably.

Each show was better than the last. Drinks service was prompt and friendly, dealers at the table were friendly and helpful. It was a warm, welcoming environment and I can't wait to go back

There was only one 8:30pm show so there was no cover charge. The show was heaps of fun and more entertaining than we expected. The venue had a good vibe mixed between the bar, card tables and slot machines.

Lots of fun to be had for your $20 tickets, good for all 3 shows for 3 days. Each show is different. If you like a small casino, there is lots to do. Plenty of seating for the first show but it gets busy as the night goes on. By midnight (the last show) the place was packed and standing room only. Small bar and food selection but the quality was good. Some merchandise for sale, too. The show was terrific; great costumes, singing, Cancan dancing, some audience participation and a great, family friendly atmosphere. Be aware; it can be noisy so take decibel blockers if volume is an issue for you. Wheelchair accessible onto the main floor and toilets but the wooden boardwalks in D.C. are uneven due to permafrost heaving. If you are in Dawson City, population just under 600, don't miss the show!

Great place! Good ambience, fantastic shows (different shows at 8:30pm, 10 and 12) and all the profits from the casino go to funding the local community (a non for profit casino!)

Great atmosphere and your choice of poker, blackjack, roulette and slots. I tried the slots and blackjack and couldn't catch a break. The dealer draws one card face up and then once the table is done with their cards the dealer takes another card. Hadn't Played this way before. Didn't do well. Beer on draft was good and really enjoyed the can can shows during the night. Singers and dancers were very talented and I'll go back as it was an entertaining night even though it seemed tough to win.

The show was entertaining, but eat before you get here. There was one guy "working"... taking orders and cooking, between checking his phone and counting his tips. After waiting 45 min in line for food, and missing the show, he told me he was out of half the food and only takes cash. He takes 1 order at a time, and cooks it, serves it, then starts the next. No sense of urgency, which, as a small business owner I know he ultimately costs the owners a ton. Then again, the managers or staff didn't offer to help.

During our 2 night stay in Dawson, we watched all 6 shows. This is literally the only place open after 9pm despite it being bright daylight outside in the summer. Shows were good treat to enjoy live performances while traveling through. Most of the performers are also "tourists" who come to work for the summer season and then head on to their next gig or back home. No drink minimums to watch the show. Staff does a great job of recognizing the locals, "hey, you were in here last night", etc. Casino had low minimums - at times $1-2 Blackjack.

Dawson City's world famous gambling hall is named after bona fide dance hall queen Diamond Tooth Gertie. Admission is $12, and there are three different shows per night, May through September. I recommend booking early since this place can get very busy when the cruise buses roll in. The popular re-creation of an 1898 saloon is complete with small-time gambling, a honky-tonk piano and dancing girls. During the Gold Rush of 1898, the story goes that Gertie wedged a sparkling diamond between her two front teeth. But any discomfort really didn't matter since this girl was making money with her show. Today visitors can enjoy a drink while playing blackjack, roulette, Texas hold'em poker and an array of slot machines as Gertie and 'her girls' perform their 1-hour dance routine. The midnight shows are positioned as the more risqué version -- but let's face it, this is your 80-year-old grandma kind of dirty.

We had a really fun time! Low stakes, gambling, drinking beers and great entertainment. It's a must go while in Dawson, prices are reasonable and it's a good time!!

With a cheesy (but fun) old-west style dance hall show (don't sit in front!), $1-$2 table minimums, and cheap drinks, this place is a riot. Like the whole town, it's a place that is evocative of its founding as a gold rush town and touristy bits aside, there is living history here. A place to visit if you find yourself near Dawson City!

While on an extended RV trip through Canada and Alaska, we ended up in Dawson City, Yukon Territories, Canada and decided to hang out for a few days of R & R before heading to Alaska via the Top Of The World Highway. We decided to take in a "can-can" show for grins and giggles, oh, and an adult beverage or two. Diamond Tooth Gertie's Gambling Hall filled the bill nicely. The show tickets are $12 each but a valid for as long as you are in Dawson - you can go back as many times on as many days as you like. Gertie's is an old fashioned saloon with a small casino and a central stage. There is a restaurant of some sort available but we didn't eat there. There are three shows each night, each a little more risqué as the night wears on. We stayed for only the first two shows and had a great time. We arrived early and got great seats right up front. The show revolves around a female lead singer and four dancers on the central stage. Each successive show is a little different and the ladies dance in very colorful, gold-rush period costumes and have mastered the high kicking, line dancing style of the day. As a footnote, most of the front tables were filled by seniors - and if you are an old geezer like me, you are subject to "volunteering" for the public participation part of the show. Consider yourself warned. You may find yourself on the arm of a pretty girl doing a "can't-can't" dance of your own on center stage. The ladies appearing in the shows are gracious and friendly. They all come out to meet and greet the patrons and pose for pictures with anyone interested in doing so. This was great fun. A nice place to spend an enjoyable evening and the drinks and snacks are reasonably priced. I highly recommend Gertie's to anyone visiting Dawson City.

For the most part, Dawson City feels like it's done a good job of modernizing its heritage as a gold mining town to appeal to tourists. And Diamond Tooth Gertie's is a big part of it. It's like being in an 1890s gold town cabaret show, except without that whole fear of being shanked at the bar while drinking whiskey for your claim. The shows vary as the night goes on, with the earlier holding true to a more classic Mae West vaudeville act and the midnight show being a little more modern, with shorter skirts and rock and roll standards mixed in. The food at the snack bar are pretty bad, but also represent the only place to get dinner in Dawson after a certain hour. The bar only has Yukon Brewing Company stuff on draft, and just typing that is making me wish I could find Yukon Gold on draft in the States. It's a twelve dollar yearly membership fee out front that you can charge, but from that point on its cash only. Although they do accept American dollars if that's your thing.

This is a fun place that we discovered on a recent trip through the Yukon. It is a non-profit casino that donates proceeds to the maintenance of Dawson. The show was fun -- a simple singer-band-dancing girls saloon romp. You order and pick up your food at a window at the back of the casino. I was surprised to find that their cheeseburger was one of the best I have had. The lasagne looked great too. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

Had a great evening here watching the midnight show, eating tasty food, and drinking tasty beer. Pretty much one stop shopping for entertainment. Didn't gamble because it's not my thing, but it was definitely the most happening thing in Dawson at the time anyway. The female singer was really great, as were the dancers.

I am apoplectic at the sharp business practice of this establishment. I have visited several times, bought drinks at the bar, gambled at the tables and watched the show. At no previous time have I ever been asked for a "pass". This time, I went baout to get my glasses and when I came back in I was asked for a pass. I was surprised and didn't know what to say, at which time I was ushered to a ticket window and told I would need to pay $15 for my pass. Okay perhaps in the past someone didn't do their job, but when I brought my concerns to management, i was told, I hear and understand you, but the pass costs $15 if you want to come in. Such inconsistency aggravates me and feel taken advantage of. I cannot rate the establishment higher than 1 star. If there was a zero star rating I would have used that. My recommendation is post a conspicuous sign outside BEFORE one enters letting all know that it's going to cost you to come in. Don't leave it up to a busy usher to watch for everyone coming in.

So apparently it's ok for male staff to place their hands in female patrons who do not consent at Diamond Tooth Gerties. I was attempting to make my way to the bathroom in a crowded house and saw a path way. As I was stepping through I politely asked a male staff member if I could head that way. He placed his hands on my thigh and pushed me back saying absolutely not. I rerouted and headed to the bathroom. After the incident I returned to my friends and told them that he had placed his hands on me in an inappropriate fashion. He saw me pointing his way and gave me a smug smile and a wave. I told management what happened and their response was to victim blame me rather than say company policy does not include touching women. I explained that all he needed to do was say not to go that way and to point out a way I could go. But instead the manager again blamed me and said "we're done here". This was a gross abuse of male power gone unchecked by male management. If you are a woman I'd suggest finding a different venue to watch a show in Dawson City.
