December 2021
It's finally time to bid farewell to 2021 and welcome 2022. We understand that this isn't your typical New Year's Eve as restaurants and venues will be closing earlier. This NYE, there will be no large indoor parties, but rather smaller experiences and outdoor festivities. They've been replaced by some fantastic selections that properly capture the spirit of New Year's Eve 2020/2021. But there’s no reason to stop us all from celebrating the New Year.
