New Year's Eve party is tonight at Convention Center in Cleveland, anti-police brutality rally is at 9:30 pm on Public Square, the Horseshoe Casino is sponsoring a free party: By Cleveland Urban News.Com, Ohio's leader in Black digital news with millions of readers
CLEVELAND, Ohio- As Cleveland Rocks NYE 2015 hits downtown Cleveland tonight with a 10-dollar-per-person public New Year's Eve party to ring in 2015 outside of the Convention Center on Mall B, 602 St Clair Ave, community activists will be protesting over police killings at 9:30 pm at the nearby Public Square, also in downtown Cleveland.
Also, there will be a free New Year's Eve party at the Horseshoe Casino, also in downtown Cleveland. It features D.J. Smoov spinning tunes on the first floor until 2 am, and the Spazmatics will perform beginning at 9:30 pm on the second floor of the casino into an '80s party. The Horseshoe will serve champagne for a buck, from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m., organizers said.
Other events will be going on throughout the city, a city where all eyes are on the relationship between police and the community, a relationship that is being tested as police shootings of unarmed people escalate. The killings, which have increased racial unrest, particularly in the Black community, come coupled with findings by the U.S. Department of Justice of systemic deficiencies in the largely White Cleveland Police Department, from illegal deadly shootings to cruel and unusual punishment against the mentally ill.
For the New Year's Eve party at Mall B on St Clair Ave, there be live coverage, starting around 8 pm. on the Entertainment channel, giving you the rundown on festival, the Plain Dealer Newspaper reported.
Other Mall B party features include fireworks, food trucks, a beer garden and performances by Cleveland's own Machine Gun Kelly, DJ E-V and Carlos Jones.
Gates open at 8 pm., and the event will be broadcast live on WOIO Channel 19, from 10 pm. to 12:30 am.
