STIR Opens at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel

The grand opening was punctuated by a performance by Alizma, a group of identical triplets who all sing and play violin and whose music bridges the gap between classical and pop/rock. In addition, an exhilarating dance routine was performed by the venue’s bevertainers and choreographed by Farrington Entertainment & Productions, a Las Vegas company that has developed the choreography for worldwide events, including the recent red carpet extravaganza that celebrated Britney Spears’ arrival at Planet Hollywood. Live performances by popular New York City party band New York Minute and DJ Nicholas Picholas, of Buffalo’s Kiss 98.5, kept the crowd moving well into the early morning.

“Energy and excitement are going to be the hallmarks of an evening spent at STIR,” Walker said. “We wanted to set that unmistakable tone right from the start.”
