It’s almost here; the only night when celebrating is pretty much mandatory.
Whether you’re a fan of New Year’s Eve or can’t stand it, we can all agree that we should probably celebrate the brutal year that was 2016 coming to an end as we look to 2017 with optimism.
We mean, it’s sort of our only choice.
Here are the top New Year’s Eve parties in Canada.
Toronto
The Bay Street Ball 2017
On NYE, you’ll find Toronto’s influential set of easy-on-the-eyes movers and shakers at Modus Restaurant. Here, you’ll get a little bit of everything – a gourmet meal, flowing champagne, a guaranteed dance party, live comedy and a quality silent auction.
The Thompson Hotel NYE
If you’re one for a more ‘see and scene’ vibe, you’ll definitely find it over at The Thompson Hotel. Beginning at 9pm, the Toronto hotel will host a NYE bash that will include hors d’oeuvres, party favours, access to the lobby bar and view-filled rooftop lounge, entertainment and a midnight toast.
Majestic New Year’s Eve 2017
Offering no shortage of social media material and the opportunity to go as glam as your heart desires, the Fairmont Royal York will once again return with Majestic New Year’s Eve. Elements like the regal lobby staircase, stunning chandeliers and massive Christmas tree will offer the perfect backdrop for all that social media activity. Tickets are available for both dinner, and dinner and the party.
NYE Carnival
You don’t have to wait for summer to get a taste of the carnival. On New Year’s Eve, Amsterdam Brewery will transform into a carnival-themed bash with illusionists, acrobats, carnival games, magicians, DJs and a midnight balloon drop (oh, the photo ops).
