VEGAS NIGHTS Returns to Riverside Theatre
Vegas Nights takes place July 11-13 and July 18-20, 2024.

Riverside Theatre has announced the return of Vegas Nights to benefit the Theatre's youth tuition assistance and community engagement programs. Vegas Nights takes place July 11-13 and July 18-20, 2024.
Riverside's Orchid Lobby will be transformed into a Las Vegas-style casino where patrons can play for raffle tickets to win prizes donated by local merchants. Casino games include: Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, Slot Machines, 3 Card Poker, and Let It Ride Poker.
In addition to the casino games, professional stand-up comedians as part of the Comedy Zone will perform on the Waxlax Stage on Friday and Saturday and local bands will perform on the outdoor Live in The Loop Stage Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. No tickets are required to enter the lobby or enjoy the musicians outside. Tickets are required for the Comedy Zone. Casino dollars are required to play the games.
While entertaining audiences young and old has been the most obvious of Riverside Theatre's missions, it is not its sole focus. Education and community outreach are among the bedrocks of Riverside Theatre's calling. And, giving every child the opportunity to learn from the performing arts regardless of financial backing is paramount.
A collaborative program with the Boys & Girls Club of Indian River County, the Gifford Youth Achievement Center, the Environmental Learning Center, Youth Guidance and The Gifford Youth Orchestra initiated last Fall will continue to grow and is expected to benefit these organizations.
