New Year’s Eve in Atlantic City remains the province of high rollers who are wined and dined at lavish private soirees by their gaming halls of choice. But that doesn’t mean the rest of us are shut out of the festivities.

There are a number of public events, from dance parties such as the one run by legendary Philadelphia radio personality Jerry Blavat featuring The Trammps of “Disco Inferno” fame at the Atlantic City Hilton, and the retro-bash at Boogie Nights at Resorts Atlantic City, to bacchanals staged at ultra-hip discos such as Borgata’s mur.mur and mixx, the Taj Mahal’s Casbah Nightclub and The pool at Harrah’s Resort Atlantic City, where DJ Jazzy Jeff will preside over the merrymaking.

Plus, there are a slew of musical and comedic headliners. The former includes what is the night’s hippest booking, Elvis Costello & The Imposters at House of Blues inside Showboat, and pop-’n-soul queen Patti LaBelle, who’ll welcome 2008 from the stage at Caesars Atlantic City.

If you’d rather laugh your way into the New Year, your choices include sitcom star Brad Garrett at Harrah’s and X-rated Lisa Lampanelli at Borgata.

Perhaps the most unusual offering is at Showboat, which is turning its French Quarter Buffet into a jazz supper club for the evening.
