As we usher in 2018 we have a choice. Plan to late, pay a high cover charge at some stupid local par or restaurant, blow in a kazoo at midnight and go home disappointed. OR, you can make this year’s celebration (and 2018 right along with it) your very best ever.
But how? Where to go? What to do?
Well, we went ahead and not only found the best cities to visit, we’ll let you know exactly where to stay to enjoy a New Year’s Eve of legend. So here it is. Our list of the best eastern U.S. New Year’s Celebrations and Dirt Cheap Deals to make it all happen. (And don’t worry if you’re west of the Mississippi. We have YOUR amazing choices right here, too.)
New York City
Thought you couldn’t afford the Big Apple? Think again. But before we knock your socks off with our members-only club prices, let us remind you how cool this NYE celebration is! Not many places can match the vibe here. You get the iconic ball drop at One Times Square – PLUS you can check out “Hamilton,” “Beautiful,” or the epically hilarious “Madeline.” They’re ALL on Broadway this month!
Must Do Deal: Z NYC Hotel, Just $336 for MDT members (near Bloomingdale’s in Long Island City business district)
New Orleans
Okay, so this city is technically ON the Mississippi, but it’s definitely not considered “West.” And this town is right at the top of the list for a reason. Get down NYE style at NOLA’s holiday hub at Jackson Square – with free concerts all night long. At midnight, you’ll catch a giant Fleur de Lis take its annual 25-foot descent before a luminescent firework-lit sky – with the music sounding in time. Then its off to Bourbon Street for the traditional New Orleans “wheels come off” party until the Sun rises.
Must Do Deal: Doubletree by Hilton, Just $170 for MDT members (near Jackson Square)
Orlando
The Happiest Place on Earth segues perfectly into the Wildest Place on Earth. There is nothing, we repeat, nothing more magical than Disney and Orlando during New Years Eve. This is the world’s best place for families to ring in the New Year together – bar none. Fewer crowds endless activities, performances by Cirque du Soleil – PLUS dance parties, live entertainment galore. Oh, and then there’s that magic show …
RedMust Do Deal: Red Lion Orlando, Just $98 for MDT members (near Disney Main Gate West)
Atlantic City
This is the perfect time to hit the Boardwalk Empire. Perfect for singles, couples or families alike, there is endless entertainment and the best party scene east of Las Vegas. Try your luck at world class casinos and then dress to impress as top resorts host the most lavish NYE parties in America. Yeah, there’s fireworks and all that jazz too – turnt up wayyyy past 10.
Must Do Deal: TRYP by Wyndham, Just $341 for MDT members (right at the heart of town)
Miami
World-class nightlife, healthy bodies, gourmet cuisine and a balmy 75-degree average temperature during this time of year makes Miami an NYE slam dunk. Fireworks to the beat of Latin dance can be had at Bayfront Park. But don’t think that South Beach would be outdone. Check out Ocean Drive’s Lummus Park for wild parties with the “glitterati.” Just book. You literally cannot go wrong.
Must Do Deal: Stay with the President at Trump National Doral Miami, Just $406 for MDT members (smack dab at the center of it all)
Nashville
We don’t care what you say. Miley Cyrus rocks. And so does her hometown, Nashville, all NYE night long. So saddle up for some honky tonk fun. Don a Stetson or your Lucchese boots and get down in the epicenter of Country. You will find some of the best live music, food and wild times no matter where you turn. Not to mention, you will LOVE how affordable everything is!
Must Do Deal: Millenium Maxwell House Nashville, Just $262 for MDT members (right beside State Capital)
