New Year's Eve at Henry Deane

Overview

If you’ve checked out the Hotel Palisade’s swish new rooftop bar, Henry Deane, you’ll already know it’s going to make for one hell of a New Year’s Eve venue. The 360-degree views are extraordinary, so you'll be in prime position to take in every single second of pyrotechnics happening on the night, from Sydney Harbour to The Rocks to Barangaroo Reserve to the Anzac Bridge. Few places in the city offer such a straight-up spectacular perspective.

What’s more, your ticket buys you way more than panoramas. You’ll score a drink at the door, a champagne hour for the midnight countdown and a tasty, tasty selection of roaming morsels and shared spreads, created by head chef Joel Bennetts. Meanwhile, DJ Crazy P — all the way from the UK — will be keeping your toes a-tapping while the fireworks are taking a break.

Named after legendary Aussie engineer and architect, Henry Deane, the Palisade’s split-level rooftop bar is one of Sydney’s most beautiful revamps. Back in the early 20th century, Deane was one of the hotel’s best-dressed frequenters, so the renovated interior — designed by Sibella Court — pays homage to his flawless sense of style. Think lavish marble surfaces, pink leather couches and stunning copper touches.
