WEST SILOAM SPRINGS, Okla. — Cherokee Casino & Hotel West Siloam Springs is pulling out all the stops for New Year’s Eve and throwing a bash packed with cash drawings, a 2026 Porsche Macan giveaway, and free performances by Y2K rap icons Twista and Travis Porter.
The Dec. 31 event is free and open to the public, and guests must be 21 or older to attend.
DJ CudCareLes gets the party started at 9 p.m. in SEVEN Bar, with Twista taking the stage at 10 p.m. Multiplatinum and Grammy-nominated recording artist Twista originally broke through the hip hop scene in the early ‘90s as Tung Twista, earning acclaim as the fastest rapper in the world, even holding the Guinness World Record title for the distinction. He amazed critics and fans alike with his remarkably smooth, rapid-fire raps taking center stage for his first three albums before breaking through the Billboard 200 with his 2004 album, “Kamikaze,” that included No. 1 smash hits “Slow Jamz” and “Overnight Celebrity.” Since then, Twista has become a household name in the hip hop genre and has gone on to release six more albums.
Travis Porter will take the SEVEN Bar stage at 11 p.m. leading up to the countdown to midnight. Travis Porter consists of Lakeem "Ali" Grant, Donquez "Quez" Woods and Harold "Strap" Duncan. Based out of Atlanta, Georgia, the group is known for underground hits like “Bring It Back,” “Ayy Ladies (feat. Tyga)” and “They Wanna Have Fun.”
Guests can enjoy complimentary hats, horns and tiaras inside SEVEN Bar.
Cherokee Casino & Hotel West Siloam Springs is raising the stakes even further with more than $135,000 in cash giveaways. The action kicks off at 3 p.m. on Dec. 31 with $2,000 cash drawings every hour through 10 p.m. Just after midnight, the celebration continues as one lucky guest will be selected at 12:30 a.m. to drive away in a 2026 Porsche Macan. Guests can earn entries now through Dec. 31 for their chance to win.
