WHO: The Eldorado Resort Casino and the Salvation Army of Washoe County

WHAT: For one night, all proceeds from “The Unbelievables Christmas Extravaganza” will be donated to the Salvation Army of Washoe County. Tickets for this performance only can be purchased directly at the Salvation Army office located at 1931 Sutro Street or by calling 775-688-4555 ext. 230.

WHERE: The Eldorado Resort Casino WHEN: Friday, Dec. 1 at 8 p.m.

WHY: Each year, holiday spirit shines from door-to-door of the Eldorado Resort Casino and there’s certainly no shortage of that this Christmas. On average, this partnership raises nearly $25,000 per year for The Salvation Army of Washoe County.

The Salvation Army serves the needy 365 days of the year with food, clothing, household goods, rent, utilities and more. In addition, they operate a 70-bed drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that is free of cost to participants. They serve the biggest concentration of people during the holidays where in 2016 they served more than 1,400 families with holiday food boxes and toys for more than 4,300 children. Major Charles Fowler, County Coordinator for The Salvation Army, explained that the income they receive from the Eldorado show is one of the largest single corporate donations they receive during the year. “It is a very crucial part of our fund-raising efforts,” said Fowler.

From the producers of the Broadway smash hit “The Illusionists” and “Cirque Le Noir,” the multi-million dollar production of “The Unbelievables Christmas Extravaganza” will dazzle at the Eldorado this holiday season. This amazing family spectacle features “America’s Got Talent” finalists Sara and her dog Hero, spellbinding illusionists, breathtaking cirque artists and world-class singers, dancers and variety performers. It will appear at the Eldorado Theatre from Nov. 21 – Dec. 31. For tickets to all over showings, please visit EldoradoReno.com.
