It is about time to say goodbye to 2017 an enthusiastic “Hello” to 2018, and Madison is a fun place to be for the festivities. From extravagant parties to special dinner menus, a mindful evening to free family fun, Madison has it all. Check out my list below for some ideas on where you can celebrate the New Year.
BIG AND BOLD
If you love being “dressed to the nines,” wearing a glittery mask, and singing along with dueling pianos then the Ivory Room Piano Bar’s Masquerade Party is just your thing. With a dessert bar, photo booth, and cocktail service you are sure to bring in 2018 in style!

ALL YOU CAN DRINK
“Dress Up and get DOWN” is what it’s all about at DLUX. Guests will enjoy a premium open bar, DJ Billy the Kid, and passed hors d’oeuvres (I mean, who doesn’t love sliders and truffle fries?) With this line-up, DLUX is sure to be your kind of happening place on December 31st.

FAMILY FUN
Take the morning to be creative and craft with the whole family at the DreamBank for free. Late nights are not for everyone, so this is a great way to get out during the day and get inspired for the new year. The event is held from 9:30am-12:00pm.

INNER PEACE
Maybe 2017 has been hectic and heading into 2018 you are wanting to get in tune with yourself and find a way to be refreshed and gain balance in your life. If so, head over to Inner Fire Yoga’s west side location for a night of Aroma Vinyasa yoga featuring hand-crafted essential oils that will energize your body, mind, and soul.

ALL ABOUT THE FOOD
Go for the food and stay for the fun at Liliana’s Restaurant in Fitchburg. You will enjoy amazing Creole cuisine to finish of 2017 with some spice. For only $65 you will indulge yourself in a five course meal, live jazz music, and a champagne toast to top the night off.

DANCE, DANCE, DANCE
If you just want to bust a move all night, you’re not alone. For the sixth year in a row the Majestic will be hosting DECADANCE, your chance to, literally, dance the night away to music from the past century. Get ready to celebrate the passing of time and the promise of the future while shaking your “groove thang” with friends, loved ones, and a host of perfect strangers. There is no doubt that, fun will be had by all.

SOPHISTICATED FUN
For the only “ball drop” in Madison, you’ll have to head over to The Edgewater Hotel where, this year the theme is Rio de Janeiro. Spend the night celebrating with a 17-piece band, all you can eat Brazilian street food, and traditional Brazilian cocktails – caipirinhas anyone? You will love “tocando no ano novo com estilo”
