MONTICELLO, N.Y. (May 22) – Resorts World Catskills, New York’s newest and closest integrated casino resort to Manhattan, celebrated its one-year anniversary with a weekend of iconic performances, private events and celebrity appearances.
Headlining the festivities was a lively performance on Saturday from legendary singer and songwriter, Paul Anka who brought his Anka Sings Sinatra: His Songs, My Hits, My Way! tour to the integrated casino resort. Celebrity chef Scott Conant hosted the official anniversary celebration with a late-night event at his Italian steakhouse, Cellaio, which featured food, dancers and a DJ set from Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz.
The weekend-long celebration also featured an anniversary gala with VIP guests that featured a performance from country singer Phil Vassar. The country singer’s career has spanned more than 20 years and includes the release of six albums, two ASCAP Songwriter of the Year trophies, ACM’s Top New Male Vocalist and sold-out shows across the country.
