Atlantic City boardwalk in 2015
Party Like it’s 2015 in Atlantic City!
Part II
Rounding out the long list of fantastic the Atlantic City boardwalk entertainment options, here, as promised, are some additional great ways to test AC in 2015 at Resorts, the Tropicana AC, and the Taj Mahal.
Tropicana Casino and Resort
There is so much exciting entertainment going on at once at the Trop, making your selection at this Atlantic City boardwalk hotel won’t be easy.
The Commodores
The world renowned R&B group that was once headed by Lionel Richie will be giving the only Atlantic City concert of the night at the Tropicana Showroom at 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $55, 65, or $75. Call 609-340-4020 or purchase the tickets at the box office or you may find them here.
Providence Nightclub
This popular nightspot in the Tropicana Quarter doesn’t come cheap, but at $95 per person, you will get a lot for your money at this Atlantic City event, including a free premium open bar from 9:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., hors d’oeuvres from 9:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. DJs and dancing until 4 a.m., live broadcasts from Times Square on large TV screens, and confetti and a champagne toast at midnight. Or, for $150 per person, you can spring for the VIP package which also includes priority admission on the VIP line, and bottle service and mixers at your table. For more information and reservations, call 609-345-7800.
Boogie Nights
If you prefer a club with a more retro atmosphere, Boogie Nights might be the perfect place. Admission is $60 per person and includes entertainment, complimentary hors d’ oeuvres, an open bar from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., party favors, and complimentary champagne at midnight. Or for $100 per person, you also get a VIP booth, or for $150 per person you get a VIP booth by the dance floor. You can reserve for this Atlantic City event now by calling 888-940-7080. Or to save money, come after midnight when admission is only $25.
Cuba Libre Restaurant and Rum Bar
In addition to dinner, the restaurant is serving up continuous Latin and Top 40 dance music and, as the featured attraction, a New Year’s Eve Tropical Floor Show at 11:30 p.m. VIP tickets costing $75 also give you access to an exclusive open bar from 10 p.m. to 12 a.m (credit juanita). Dinner and dancing packages are also available. For more information and to make reservations for this Atlantic City event, call 609-348-6700.
Anthem
$70 admits you to the Carnivale, which includes an open bar from 9 p.m. to midnight, a mask and headpiece, beads, party favors, and noisemakers, and a champagne toast at midnight.
Adam Good Sports Bar: $10 admission includes a midnight buffet.
Firewaters: $10 includes a champagne toast, munchies, and party favors.
Resorts Casino Hotel
Resorts is the oldest of the Atlantic City hotels and casinos, but just like every other Atlantic City hotel, it is more than ready to help you celebrate the start of 2015. Two gourmet restaurants at Resorts are offering a special three course prix fixe New Year’s Eve menu, Capriccio for $90 per person (609-340-6789) and Gallagher’s for $98 per person (609-340-6555). The good news is that if you would like to continue your celebration afterwards at Margaritaville, Landshark Bar and Grill, or Bar One, the cost for the live entertainment and drinks will set you back very little extra, because none of these places has a cover charge.
Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort
Last, but certainly not least, is an Atlantic City hotel and casino I did not expect to be mentioning at all in this column, but in case you’ve been sleeping under a Yule log, the Taj did not close on either the 12th or 20th of December and is not slated to close anytime soon. So why not show this struggling Atlantic City boardwalk hotel-casino your support by stopping by and having drink there to celebrate this good news. You can have a nice dinner, too, at Il Mulino (609-449-6006) or Robert’s Steakhouse (609-428-6505). Then, starting at 10 p.m. the Angels (a female singing group) will perform free at the Ego Bar.
