Family-Friendly Atlantic City: Duality and 4th of July

The 4^th of July is tomorrow, and many families are trying to figure out how to spend the holiday. Should we trek up to the mountains? Should we gather with neighbors for a cookout? Should we stay home and relax? There is another option, friends! We’ve got two words for you:

Atlantic. City.

What?!  With my family?!?

YES!

Until recently, we’ve associated Atlantic City, NJ with fun weekend getaways, bachelor parties and casinos. Not anymore! Atlantic City has done some great work to become a family-friendly travel destination, thanks to the Atlantic City Alliance. Now there is fun for everyone in AC!

 Intrigued? Independence Day is the perfect chance to check out all of the Family Fun Atlantic City has to offer.

Aside from the beach, boardwalk and fireworks, Atlantic City Alliance has teamed up with Montreal-based media and entertainment studio, Moment Factory, to debut the breath-taking 3-D Light Show, Duality, directly after the fireworks show on July 4^th around 9:30pm. Moment Factory has worked on similar shows for Celine Dion and Madonna, so we know this will be spectaular!

Duality is an 8-1/2 minute light show that shares the story of Atlantic City’s rich history, which will be projected onto the facade of Boardwalk Hall. Spanning the decades of architecture, recreation, social progress and industrial achievements, Duality will utilize light and sound to amaze audiences. The show will be shown year round, twice an hour (subject to change on seasons and special events).

This is the first light show of it’s kind in Atlantic City, taking 3 months to build with a team of 35 members. How amazing would it be to bring your family and see the inaugural show?!
