One of the biggest is the Big Night New Orleans Gala at the Hyatt Regency. If you prefer to stay indoors, there will be hundreds of parties all over town. Make a point to visit Jackson Square, where you can watch the Fleur-de-Lis Drop from the top of Jax Brewery or see national acts perform live during Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve broadcast. Bourbon Street will be packed with revelers, who can legally bring drinks outside while celebrating. But that’s not the only reason to visit the Big Easy. The December weather is relatively mild for New Orleans, making the city a welcome alternative to colder parts of the country for New Year’s Eve. Phish is playing five nights at Madison Square Garden Dec. Meanwhile, The Strokes are scheduled for the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Radio City Music Hall hosts a post-Christmas spectacular featuring the famous Rockettes early in the afternoon. Hamilton and other Broadway shows will wrap up well before midnight, allowing plenty of time to celebrate before the countdown begins. The Big Apple is also known for entertainment, and that’s especially true on holidays. Top restaurants will be busy, so make reservations early, especially among the collection of trendy restaurants at Hudson Yards by the river. Another fireworks display will be seen above the grass and trees of Central Park. Otherwise, book a cruise on the Hudson River and enjoy the serenity of the water underneath the bombast of the fireworks overhead. You’re better off joining a party at Mango, Copacabana or another Midtown club. It’s a notoriously crowded and frigid experience that’s best left to those looking to cross the event off their bucket lists. Most of the attention is on Times Square for the annual Ball Drop at midnight. As can be expected, the biggest city in the United States has one of the most elaborate New Year’s Eve celebrations in the world.
