2018 Countdown Lounge at The Peak Bar

Arguably Tokyo's most luxurious hotel, the Park Hyatt is pulling out all the stops for its annual New Year's Eve bash: think free-flowing champagne, cocktails and canapes, with local talent turned international star DJ Sarasa and fashion/music icon Dimitri From Paris on the decks, and a backdrop of the Tokyo skyline from the 41st-floor Peak Bar to top it all off. Buy your tickets in advance online, and perhaps live on cup noodles for a while to recoup the money spent.
