Do you seem confused about where to go this year for New Years? I know I am. I am going to have to wait until the last minute to plan this years final days because I just do not know where to party. It is not because there are so many huge events to goto but because none of them really stand out so far. This is the end of the decade we should be partying like it’s 2009 come December 31st. Then again, do not party too hard because it falls on a Thursday and you have to party all weekend long afterwards.
I have asked on forums about what cities people think will be hot this year and its pretty much agreed that San Francisco and New York City are OUT. Unless you want to be inside a small venue with too many people. Not to mention all the mess in Times Square or on the strip in Vegas I cannot imagine doing either one of those again. I wanna be at a huge party with big balls (you know the New Year’s ball) and hard pumping music counting down to the top songs of the year.
My top 5 pics so far are
1. LONDON, UK – Boy Band A1 reunites live for only 10 GBP at G-A-Y @ Heaven Nightclub (our favorite international club of the year)
2. ORLANDO, FL – The Parliament House in Orlando hosts a rare performance by Abigail before Midnight. Inaya Day will go on stage right after the New Year’s Countdown about 12:05 and the 2nd Footlight Players show will be on the pool stage at 1:00am. The Footlight Players Special New Year’s Eve Shows will be “The Best of 2009” at 10pm. They also offer a dinner for $28.95 including appetizers and wine or champagne and dessert. Note that Lady Gaga will also be in Orlando on January 3rd.
3. HOLLYWOOD, CA – Club Tigerheat 18 and up club [they are open Thursdays at Avalon but not sure if they are doing anything special for this night but it will be packed]
4. LOS ANGELES, CA – Masterbeat X at the Mayan Theater with LED laser systems and powerhouse team of Rosabel. Party goes on afterhours at Arena with Manny Lehman. Hotel Accommodations with a Masterbeat discount are at The London, a boutique hotel in Hollywood.
5. MIAMI, FL – Lady Gaga live at the Knight Center then Genesis VII New Years Day 2010
Just added Las Vegas we will put that in as a tie with 5.
My favorite all time parties were at Coliseum in Ft. Lauderdale but that is long closed. You would think they would re-open for New Years Eve right? The fun thing about New Years Eve though is it is Amateur night out because many non-clubbers go out this night. OK, now that I have typed this list I am thinking I may have to go with a Los Angeles or Orlando unless I am traveling to the UK. I also saw some cool parties going on in Brazil. Come back for more updates on New Years Eve 2010.
Other related events include NYC, NY – Alegria, Sunday, December 27 – DJ Tony Moran & Abel in the former Crobar space. Have not seen anything else exciting going on in NYC except the Club Drama going on that weekend at Rush and Splash. DJ Tony Moran will also be in SAN FRANCISCO for a New Years’ Eve party.
