After more than six months of being subjected to the ongoing global pandemic that had stopped all of our leisurely activities, New Jersey has geared up to open its doors to entertainment once more. The most exciting entertainment options to resume are concerts or live music events.
In light of the ongoing pandemic, these events might not be the same as they used to be, but the prospect of concerts and live music being available once more is certainly compelling. Various casinos and restaurants have updated their schedules to announce musical events. If the state regulatory authorities allow these events to proceed, you could soon see multiple entertainment and music events popping up throughout the state.
Read on as we take a closer look at some of these musical events.
Bayside Rock Live
The first news of the revival of the outdoor concerts originated from Harrah’s Casino & Resort, Atlantic City, NJ. The event titled “Bayside Rock Live” would take place at Harrah’s in collaboration with well-known sponsors, including NJ Lottery and LG Business Solutions, and part of the overall sales of tickets would be donated to charity, specifically the NJ Foodbank.
“Bayside Rock Live” would feature musical performances covering some of the best musical numbers from the past decades performed by renowned tribute musical groups. The event slate dictates one act per night each Friday with a different musical guest.
Among the slated musical guests are tribute bands like The FABBA Show, Aerosmyth, New York Bee Gees, Beatles for Sale, and more.
