The Coolest New Year’s Eve Parties in Hong Kong: Date Night Edition!

Welcome in 2016 at the coolest spots in town (without the kiddos in tow) !

High five mamas! We made it through 12 months of the year. Through school holidays, the horrendous humidity, random rainfalls, T8 warnings, a scorching summer, Halloween, your Christmas work party and not to mention the tantrums, the the spit-up, the fighting and just about everything in between! Phew. Now give us a drink! We don’t know about you, but we have never been more ready to celebrate what an amazing year 2015 was. And for everyone staying in Honkers (which is way more than you think) for New Year’s Eve, we are in for a good one. The hard decision is just which party to choose… 

Rat Pack Party- The Woods

Fuel up for the night from 6-9pm with The Woods Guilty Pleasures Set for $348. The menu features all the goodies from The Woods Nibbles Menu, starting with Guacamole & Chips, Mac & Cheese, Chorizo & New Market Sausage, and finally the Cookie Skillet… perfect for starting off the big night. When you’re done, you can enjoy a Rat Pack-themed party with Sinatra tunes, games and prizes (you could win a bottle of bubbles or a round of shooters for your table!). You’ll even get ‘Strokes of Luck’ tokens to wage your luck on these fun games throughout the night. Early Bird tickets are for $688 (before 28 December), $788 for advanced tickets (after 28 December) and $888 at the door, which includes an open bar and festive nibbles.
