For years I’ve lamented how few New Year’s Eve activities we have in Madison. I’m happy to see things have turned around, judging by this select list of New Year’s Eve parties:
- A-OK, Barolo and Julep: Food, live music, two drink tickets and gift bags. Tickets are $65.
- Badger Bowl: Live performance by Cherry Pie, $2,016 in giveaways. Tickets are $15-$40.
- Concourse Hotel: Dinner, comedy and dancing. Accommodation and dining packages range from $179-$349.
- DLUX: Premium open bar, hors d’oeuvres and DJ. Tickets are $85.
- Edgewater Hotel: Gravity Ball, with live music, appetizers, three drink tickets and a ball drop. Tickets are $95-$1,250.
- Essen Haus and Come Back In: All-you-can eat and drink, plus live music. Tickets are $70-$75.
- Graduate Madison: Four-course prix-fixe meal and live entertainment. Tickets are $75 (hotel packages also available).
- High Noon Saloon: Seven tribute bands. Tickets are $10.
- Ivory Room: Midnight Masquerade, with open bar and costume contest. Tickets are $100.
- Liquid: Timeless party, with all-you-can drink, DJ and 4 a.m. breakfast buffet. Tickets are $85.
- Majestic Theatre: Decadance, featuring 100 years of dance music. Tickets are $20.
If you aren’t interested in these big parties, keep in mind that many restaurants are having New Year’s Eve dinner specials, and many bars will have some sort of drink special and entertainment to ring in 2016.
