Miami Beach, Tropical Baroque at Faenae

With its sandy beaches and tropical breezes, Miami Beach is a great location to ring in the new year. At Faenae, the Tropical Baroque will be an epic celebration.

Inspired by South America, the New Year’s Eve celebration is a feast from beginning to end. A glass of champagne in the cathedral to a mulit-course feast during the evening, the event will definitely be the way to celebrate the end of a decade.

As the New Year begins, Miami Beach will be lit up with fireworks, and guests will dance into the wee hours. What better way to kick off 2020?

Aspen, The Little Nell

If the call of the snowy slopes is the most appealing way to ring in the New Year, The Little Nell in Aspen is known for its amazing New Year’s Eve celebrations. This year’s party marks the 30th anniversary, and they are going big.

While the cost is high ($650 a person), the DOM PÉRIGNON Party proves that the world can be your oyster. From toasting 2020 with the best bubbles to lavish feast, everyone will believe the New Year will be filled with all the best that money can buy.

New York City, The Knickerbocker

Everyone knows about the iconic ball drop in Times Square, but being on the ground can be a chaotic celebration. At The Knickerbocker, guests can have the closest view to all the celebrations. Located just 150 below the ball, it is the place to celebrate in New York City.

With a variety of packages available, the ticket price is still quite extravagant. If you have several thousands of dollars to spend, The Knickerbocker is the place to ring in the New Year in New York City.

Las Vegas, The Cosmopolitan

The Roaring ’20s will be in full effect as The Cosmopolitan ice rink transforms into a Prohibition themed celebration. From various themed cocktails to all types of entertainment, the location is a perfect spot to ring in the new year. Plus, the evening will be capped off with some amazing fireworks.

London, The Lanesborough

While you might not be a royal, this New Year’s Eve celebration has all the pomp and circumstance of royalty. In collaboration with Moët & Chandon, this celebration will be filled with Michelin-starred food and the ultimate in luxury.

Each room has a different theme. From old-world style to a vibrant club, this event is like multiple celebrations under one roof. But all the extravagance will cost guests a steep price tag.

These New Year’s Eve celebrations are just a few of the many, many options. Even if you watch the ball drop in your PJs, raise a glass to a new year, a fresh start, and all the good that can come in 2020!
