Recently, the Beau Rivage hotel was named one of the top 500 hotels in the world by Travel and Leisure Magazine.  In their review, they called the hotel a “waterfront resort that’s like Vegas on the Gulf Coast.”

This was the seventh annual T&L 500 list and the sixth time Beau Rivage has made the list.

Beau Rivage President George Corchis Jr. said, “With a circulation of nearly one million, this award is very significant because it comes from the magazine’s readers, who are among the most sophisticated and passionate travelers in the world.”

Beau Rivage is an MGM Mirage property. It has 1,740 guest rooms and suites, 11 restaurants, four nightclubs and bars, a 1,550-seat theater, a shopping promenade with 12 shops, a spa and salon and the Tom Fazio–designed Fallen Oak golf course.

Each room offers a stunning view of the Mississippi Gulf or the Back Bay.  Room service is offered to guests 24-hours a day.

A warm climate and Beau Rivage’s waterside location offer guests opportunities for boating, fishing and relaxation on sandy beaches along the Gulf of Mexico.  The resort’s lush, tropical pool area is set oceanside and includes a poolside cafe and bar for hotel guests.  The 31-slip marina accommodates yachts up to 200-feet in length.

The resort’s 72,000 square foot casino features the excitement of table games and slot machines, offering guests 24 hour enjoyment.

This wonderful vacation spot will be an exciting place to hear Clay perform.

Located on the New Hampshire shoreline within an hour’s drive of Boston, Mass., Concord, N.H., and Portland, Maine, Hampton Beach has been a prime summer holiday designation for more than a century. The historic Hampton Beach Casino, built in 1899, remains a leading attraction in the New England resort area, while the adjacent Casino Ballroom, added in 1927, continually draws some of the top names in entertainment. In order to sustain its reputation as one of the best venues in which to play and hear live music, the 2,200-seat ballroom has received a major redesign of its audio and lighting systems.

The Casino Ballroom remains, in many ways, unchanged since opening its doors on the cusp of the Roaring Twenties, when it was regarded as one of the largest and most popular dance halls in the region. The ballroom’s popularity peaked in the mid-1930s, when thousands crowded onto the dance floor to swing to such headliners as Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Count Basie. At the dawn of the rock ‘n’ roll era, The Supremes, the Four Tops, and Peter, Paul and Mary shared the stage with the Beach Boys, the Lovin’ Spoonful, and the Fifth Dimension. The ballroom’s legacy continues with performances from Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Who, Led Zeppelin, and many more.

The Casino Ballroom is a unique venue and is in the middle of the summer tourist area.  It seems that this concert hall will provide a different concert atmosphere.  It will be fun to hear all about it.
