You can stay here in Columbus, but still have a New Orleans New Year.
On New Year’s Eve, Eldorado Scioto Downs will celebrate the end of 2016 by rolling out the gold, purple and green carpet for a celebration with a Mardi Gras twist.
This year, CityScene Magazine readers voted Eldorado Scioto Downs as “Best Place to Spend New Year’s Eve.” The evening begins with a 5 p.m. surf and turf clubhouse dinner, which includes salads, dinner rolls, filet mignon, shrimp scampi, garlic potatoes and oven-roasted asparagus. For ONE Club members, the dinner is $40 per person, or $75 per couple with options to be seated at 5:30 p.m. or 8:30 p.m. with a cash bar available 30 minutes prior. For nonmembers, the dinner is $50 per person.
Along with a variety of free play and prizes that include a $2,017 cash drawing, Eldorado Scioto Downs will also host Columbus pianist Tracy Carter. Carter will play live at the clubhouse dinner as well as the High Limits Lounge. Junkbox, a local party and cover band, will play in Brew Brothers starting at 10 p.m. Also starting at 10 p.m., patrons will have the chance to step into the shoes of a lead singer at the Veil Bar’s live band karaoke, featuring Dirty Money. Attendees can also watch the college playoff games at various venues throughout Eldorado Scioto Downs.
