Mayor Oscar Goodman will celebrate his 70th birthday the only way he knows how: On the streets of Las Vegas with a Bombay Sapphire martini in his hand.

And you’re invited!

The event will be held on Friday, July 31 on the First Street Stage on the Fremont Street Experience in front of the Golden Nugget from 7-10 p.m. The party is open to the public with your $20 donation benefiting some of the Mayor’s favorite charities—Three Square, Cleveland Clinic/Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health and Opportunity Village.
