2020 is almost here, and if you’re spending the holidays in Arlington, there are plenty of local options for ringing in the new year.
Ticket prices vary per event, with several opting for no cover and others starting at up to $50 per person.
For families looking to celebrate but also go to bed well before midnight, the Columbia Pike Branch Library (816 S. Walter Reed Drive) is hosting a “Ring in the Noon Year” countdown from 11 a.m.-noon. There will be games, light snacks, and a countdown to noon.
Later in the night, there are a bunch of parties big and small planned across Arlington. For those looking to pay their respects to Clarendon Ballroom, its last night in operation will be for its New Years Eve Gala — fitting, given the venue opened on the same day twenty years ago.
In Ballston, parties are planned at Punch Bowl Social, Bisto 1521, and Rustico Ballston.
On Columbia Pike, The Celtic House Irish Pub & Restaurant will celebrate with the local band Down Wilson,
In Crystal City, at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, an all-out casino night is planned until 3 a.m. Close by, Freddie’s Beach Bar has two parties planned — a drag show on New Year’s Eve, and then a New Year’s Day champagne brunch the following morning. For a more relaxed vibe, McNamara’s Pub & Restaurant is offering a three-course dinner to ring in the new year for $30.
In Clarendon, in addition to the Clarendon Ballroom bash, several bars will be hosting parties including Bar Bao, Pamplona, Whitlow’s, The Renegade, Liberty Tavern, and Wilson Hardware. For a more low-key evening, Northside Social is offering a three-course dinner and wine pairing, with a live TV view of the ball dropping at midnight
A New Year’s Eve dinner similar to that at Northside Social is being held at Cheesetique in Shirlington.
