Living Sky Casino and the Sky Centre will celebrate their grand openings in fine style tonight.

     Las Vegas crooner Wayne Newton is scheduled to perform to a sold-out crowd at the new performing arts centre this evening.

     Today's grand opening caps off years of hard work in planning and construction for the Casino, starting from the 2003 civic election where 55 percent of voters approved the project in a plebiscite.

     The Casino has been open to the public since late December.
