There's nothing like a dress-up event to celebrate the end of the year.  Dance to the traditional big band sounds as well as music with Chicago and Motown beats in the historic Casino. Enjoy an elegant buffet dinner and dessert, champagne, party favors, and a bottle of specially engraved wine and watch the balloons drop at midnight. Book your reservations now and make it a special overnight event on the Island of Romance.
