Hey {{ Name | there }}!

With NYE falling on a Wednesday, get ready for a full-on marathon.

NYC is not holding back — we’re talking stacked lineups, extended sets, and parties that start sometime on the 31st and just… don’t stop.

You can kiss 2025 goodbye on the dance floor, and then wake up in the same glitter and groove your way into 2026 — no judgments, only basslines.

Whether you’re into rooftop rituals, warehouse raves, or low-key spaces with high-vibe selectors, there’s something waiting for you — and it’s going late.

Grab your cutest fit, best dancing shoes, and a full pack of electrolytes.

This one’s going to go and go and go…
