Like a ditch lurking after a hurdle, London New Year’s Eve parties can tend to creep up on you, leaving you flat on your face when you should be gliding gleefully into 2016.
If you’ve been neglecting your London NYE party plans this year, don’t worry. From London NYE fireworks to the capital’s best New Year’s Eve parties, here are five gigs you can still get into for when the clock strikes midnight.
Let’s start with what matters most on New Year’s Eve – having a party. The Hydra have put on some of the best nights this year, and their end of year blowout looks set to be the best London NYE party of 2015. Tickets are still on sale here.
If you have a spare £350 quid lying around this December (apparently a some people do?!) then you can get a table at Skylon, the Shard’s excellent (pricey) heavenward restaurant while the London fireworks fly. A perfect view guaranteed.
When you name your London NYE party after an Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King song, the world knows you mean business. This looks set to be the ultimate funky disco night, with DJs spinning Chaka Khan, Gwen Mccrae, Diana Ross and all the rest. Oooh baby.
We love Somerset house. Its beautiful neoclassical courtyard has a magical feel perfectly suited to winter nights. The Somerset House Terrace also happens to be right on the Thames, meaning it’s the perfect place to see the 2015 London NYE fireworks in style.
Come to this London NYE party if you want to catch man of the moment Floating Points. What we love about this party is the breakfast bar afterwards, where you can find champagne and bacon. Champagne and bacon: the best possible start to 2016.
