Downtown Reno is the Place to be this New Years

Welcome 2018 with nearly a dozen parties to choose from at the Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus Reno

Reno, NV (Nov. 30, 2017) – It’s been another monumental year for the Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus Reno with over $50 million in renovations, so it’s no surprise that they’ll welcome in 2018 in big ways -- with nearly a dozen rollicking parties, countdowns and plenty of celebratory party hats and favors handed out on the casino floor and a spectacular downtown fireworks show at midnight. Every bar will have the drinks flowing and your feet dancing well past 2017’s end. Try one or try them all with an All Access pass; whatever you choose, we hope you’ll join us as we say goodbye to one year and wave hello to the next.

The All Access Pass includes entry to rockin’ parties at The Brew Brothers, NoVi, Rum Bullions, Aura and El Jefe’s Cantina for $60 in advance. Better yet, get your hands on the All Access Premium Pass for $100 in advance that includes VIP entry at all paid parties, hosted premium bar from 9 p.m. to midnight at all Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus bars, plus a $10 food credit to Millies24 or Café Central. Enjoy bottomless Grey Goose, Ketel One, Three Olives, Patron, Jager, Jack Daniels or Crown Royal then conclude the evening with late-night favorites like nachos, burgers and tacos.

Each of the paid entry venues will have a $20 advance cover charge as well as their own open premium bar from 9 p.m. – 12 a.m. for $50. At Aura, enjoy the beats of DJ Travis Ha on the turntables or the Garage Boys and DJ Montague at The Brew Brothers.

There are plenty of places to celebrate for no cover charge and with just as much fun. Roxy’s Bar and Lounge mixes it up with Gil, Bobby and Paul at the piano bar starting at 4:30 p.m. with DJ Sam Forbes stepping in at 11 p.m. to turn it up into the “oui” hours of the morning. No cover, and there will be party favors, a countdown and midnight toast.

Those looking for a more laid-back place to ring in 2018 can head to Cin Cin Bar and Lounge at the Eldorado or, visit the Silver Baron Lounge in the Silver Legacy for prime viewing for the confetti blast under the Dome at midnight. Guests are also invited to check out Bar Centro and Drinx or the Village Bar and Blast Bar at Circus Circus Reno for a relaxing night to close out the year.
