There is a particular charm to greeting a new year with unapologetic energy and voices hoarse from singing. This NYE party does exactly that, asking guests to arrive ready to trade quiet resolutions for raucous choruses and clinking glasses of sake and inventive cocktails. As midnight approaches, the playlist shifts to live hip-hop DJ sets that feel less curated and more communal, the kind that makes strangers nod in unison. Then come the sing-alongs, late-night karaoke tunes pulling everyone onto the mic and off their reservations. Plates of bold flavours appear between verses and laughs, a tacit reminder that celebration is as much about shared bites as shared beats. By the time the clock flips to 2026, there is a sense of collective exuberance, a feeling that this was a night lived rather than merely marked.
