Artists Announce Upcoming Live Performances in Atlantic City, Despite Restrictions

Live performances are finally making a come back to Atlantic City, despite the New Jersey governor’s mandate; Governor Phil Murphy has decreed that public performances must be limited to 150 people maximum, regardless of the size of the space.

It remains to be seen how the various casinos and performances spaces comply with the mandates, never the less, shows are on for September and beyond.

The return of live entertainment should help boost visitor turnout and casino revenue as well as alleviate Atlantic City’s unemployment problem. Despite the coronavirus emergency relief bill, Atlantic City is still suffering. Live entertainment during the cold winter months is sure to boost not only the economy, but also the spirits of residents, workers, and visitors alike.

Many of the shows that were canceled during the height of the casino shutdowns, and are now rescheduled. Let’s take a look at some of the best live performances Atlantic City has to offer for the next few months.
