2017—what a year it was. If you’re as eager to say sayonara to the last 365 days as we are, then you’ve probably had your New Year’s Eve plans set months ago, right? All right, let’s not fool ourselves. The biggest party of the year is tomorrow, and many of us are still weighing our options for where to ring in 2018. (That’s code for: We have no plans, and now we’re starting to panic.)
RECOMMENDED: Full guide to New Year’s Eve 2017
Never fear, fellow procrastinators. You don’t have to blow another holiday due to your negligence or fear of commitment. We’re here to help you find the perfect New Year’s Eve parties or events to attend on such short notice. Of course, you could always brave the cold and spend it in Times Square, but we won't try to sway you on that any further.
The bashes we’ve rounded up below miraculously still have tickets available, but don’t dillydally! They will likely sell out soon. Once you’ve secured your spot, you can focus on all the other wonderful New Year’s Eve conundrums like what you’re going to wear and who you’re going to kiss at midnight. Ahh, isn’t NYE grand?
