NASHUA – The Nash Casino is ringing in the new year with a Back to the 80s-themed celebration, featuring a live concert performed by nationally renowned 80s’ cover band, The Spazmatics, making their New Hampshire debut in their signature nerd-chic attire.

Venue hours on Dec. 31 will extend from 8 a.m. to 4 a.m., Jan. 1, with holiday-exclusive drawings and free play opportunities being awarded throughout the day.

“As 2025 comes to a close, The Nash Team is looking forward to ushering in the new year with special holiday promotions and a live concert experience,” said General Manager Eric Althaus. “We invite the greater community to come and celebrate with us and enjoy a night to remember.”

Festivities will begin at the Electric Pheasant, The Nash’s in-house bar and lounge, with DJ Luis spinning the decks from 6-9 p.m. From 9:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m., the Spazmatics will take the stage in front of Stadium Social, the venue’s two-story, fully integrated retail sportsbook and entertainment complex, featuring a 60-foot-by-22-foot video wall – the largest single-wall-mounted, permanent video screen in New Hampshire. Donning skinny ties, horn-rimmed glasses and Brylcreem-styled hair, the Spazmatics deliver a cover band experience unlike any other.

Following the concert, Radio Roulette, a popular regional band known for covering songs from across the radio dial, will headline the afterparty at the Electric Pheasant.

Holiday promotions will kick off with the NOON Year’s Eve Hot Seats promotion, awarding up to $200 in free play to 30 patrons that are actively seated at a gaming machine or table between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. From 7 p.m. to midnight, any guest that is enrolled as a Club Nash member and sitting at a gaming machine or table will receive $10 in free play, as part of the “Retro Riches” promotion. At 12:30 a.m. and 1 a.m., the “$20,000 Countdown to Cash” promotion will be drawn, with 10 winners taking home $2,026 in cash prizes.

From now until Dec. 30, guests can earn tier points towards entries in the “Countdown to New Years Eve” promotion. Participating guests will be entered into drawings for a chance to win up to $2,026 in cash prizes, with drawings taking place between Dec. 26 and Dec. 30 from 5-7 p.m.

On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, The Nash’s on-site dining establishments, The Woodlands Café and Proper Chophouse, will serve exclusive menu offerings including a glazed spiral ham dinner with roasted potatoes and a braised lamb ravioli, served with a side of maitake mushrooms.
