The Bourbon Room – Atlantic City’s New Entertainment Venue
By Cindy Fertsch
The lights went out on the Showboat’s entertainment arena, The House of Blues, four years ago, but they are coming back on with a new name and a new energy. The Bourbon Room is Atlantic City’s newest entertainment venue.
Under the new ownership of partners Brian Miranda, Jason Dobson and Rob Erickson, The Bourbon Room will offer a wide array of innovative entertainment including weekly concerts, shows, bands, social nightlife events, expos, sporting events (boxing / MMA), seminars (motivational speaking) and much more. The venue will also be available for private bookings as well. The three partners are a perfect combination with Miranda being the “numbers guy,” Erickson heading production and Dobson leading public relations. “We are setting everyone up for success,” said Dobson. Miranda notes that “Step one is getting the staff in place.” The Bourbon Room is now in the process of hiring two hundred part-time employees. Miranda is also one of the owners of Atlantic City’s Wonder Bar and has brought upgrades and revitalization to the establishment.
The Bourbon Room’s first premier event is March 24th with ECW Joker’s Wild Wrestling featuring Booker T. Several other events are already booked including a Whiskey Social on March 31st and a full April line-up with Dead Reckoning, Unusual Suspects, Cybertronic, a Silent Disco and much more coming this summer.
The Bourbon Room which seats 2,400 people will be under the care of production manager, Paul Fabre who interestingly, was also the the production manager for this venue when it was the House of Blues.
With Hard Rock Casino Resort (former Taj Mahal) and Ocean Resort Casino (former Revel) opening this summer, the Bourbon Room is now yet another cause for celebration and excitement in Atlantic City.
