New York on New Year’s Eve is definitely something to be experienced.
Although the concentrated area is one that millions have claimed standing
rights to, it is truly one of the most unique trips possible—regardless of
how long it takes you to get there. The “bow tie” area in the heart of
Manhattan, overflowing with people and over-the-top energy, is not your
ordinary party in the streets. However, if you find yourself further north
in the Bronx, you will find a different atmosphere, but still plenty to do.
The events mimic the past and most of our lives: each celebration on the
eve of a New Year in New York is different than the one before, and there
is no mistaking or confusing one for the other.
The “City that Doesn’t Sleep” also doesn’t waste any time when it comes to
partying. Times Square is the biggest draw to the hundreds of thousands
that clamor in anticipation of a New Year begin gathering in the afternoon
of December 31st, with the idea of getting close to the stage that the
famous Waterford Crystal Ball lingers above. But many will tell you it’s
all hype. Like many things that are highly marked, New Year’s Eve can seem
anticlimactic. We have all had the years, or seconds into a new one, where
we think “that was it?” agreeing in the overrated-ness that we sum the
holiday up to. While it is of course a possibility at the Bronx New Years
celebrations, it isn’t probable. If you want to avoid the cliché or the
exaggerated, skip Times Square perhaps, but don’t skip New York.
After the ball is dropped and the million or so depart the Square, there is
still an important decision to be made: where will the rest of the night be
experienced? Or if you are opting out of the event all together, where will
you spend the holiday? Lucky for you in the Bronx, you are never more than
ten feet from a party. Just a short subway ride can have you at the world’s
hottest clubs, lounges, bars, and venues before anyone else. There are so
many things to do in the city that your only predicament might be which to
choose! To see a complete list of the events and festivities going on in
both the Bronx and Manhattan, visit NewYears.com; you can get discounted
tickets and inside descriptions on everything from the elite hideouts of
the famous to dive bars serving nothing but beer on tap and rock music.
The best known New Year’s Eve celebrations in NY have become international
customs. Even a couple miles north from the happenings in Times Square in
the Bronx, people party with enough enthusiasm to rival the million
standing below the ball. Many promise there is no other place in the world
that is quite the same, and are rarely challenged. New Year’s Eve in NY is
the unique pairing of a both a powerful energy and city that were made for
each other.
