Bally’s Atlantic City will turn back the clock this fall with two tribute performances celebrating the timeless music of ABBA and Chicago. ABBA Revisited will take the Grand Ballroom stage on Saturday, Sept. 5, followed by Brass Transit on Saturday, Oct. 10, bringing fan-favorite songs from two of music’s most beloved catalogs to the Boardwalk resort.
We are happy to announce that after much deliberation, and considering all factors, the Gloucester City Food Trucks and Fireworks event WILL go off as scheduled. With the forecast of oppressive heat and humidity predicted for tomorrow and throughout the weekend, the GC Celebrations Committee together with our Office of Emergency Management and Mayor and Council have had long discussions about whether or not to hold tomorrow’s event. Please be assured that we took all factors into consideration.

The summer months are traditionally accompanied by a drop in blood donations due to vacations, school breaks and changing schedules.
