Celebrate New Year's Eve at Gotham Hall with a buffet, dessert, a 5-hour open bar, live DJ, and a complimentary midnight toast.

About this tour

Welcome the New Year beneath the soaring architecture of Gotham Hall, a historic New York City ballroom once home to the Greenwich Savings Bank. This five-hour gala pairs a grand setting with a lively dance floor and a midnight toast.

Arrive when doors open at 8:00 PM and settle into reserved seating in the Grand Ballroom. A premium open bar runs until 1:00 AM, while the buffet is served from 8:00 PM to 10:30 PM, followed by dessert for later-night cravings. A live DJ spins dance, hip-hop, rock, and Top 40 favorites from across the decades, with party favors and a countdown to the New Year adding to the celebration. The menu may change, and the event is not intended to replace a complete dinner.

Choose this New York City New Year's Eve gala for an evening of music, food, and festive company in an architectural landmark. Gather your group, check that everyone has the same ticket type for seating, and celebrate the countdown at Gotham Hall. A live view of the Ball Drop is not guaranteed.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 5.00 from 6 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.4. Top 29% in New York City means it ranks in the top 29% of tours in New York City by this score.
