The Brisbane New Year's 2014-15 Party Guide

Nu Year's Eve Party: 3015

Last year, everyone’s favourite musicians turned bar proprietors looked back to 2003 for their end of year celebration. Never doing the same thing twice, this year they’re advancing onwards and then some. For New Year’s Eve, the Southside Tea Room is going forward – not back – to the future. Great Scott!

South Bank Fireworks

No, this isn’t just the easy option — although it might be the cheapest. Brisbane’s annual display at South Bank is up there with the best, but if braving the crowds rushing for the 8.30pm and midnight pyrotechnics isn’t your thing, why not make a day of it by packing a tasty picnic and staking our your ideal spot along the river?

The Big Chill

If something relaxed suits your partying style, then Brisbane’s newest festival has the event for you. The gang from The Motor Room takes over the entire Boundary Street Markets Complex for 12 hours of revelry, spanning from the early afternoon to the early hours of the new year.

New Year's Eve Roaring Twenties Party

Nestled away in Woollongabba’s cool Logan Road strip of intimate establishments, Canvas is a great place to go any night of the week, and New Year’s Eve is certain to prove no different. Suiting their year-round vibe of vintage allure, there’s a fitting theme in place for the ultimate night of merriment: the Roaring Twenties.

Studio 54 New Year's Eve

Another New Year’s Eve party, another era to celebrate; this time, it’s the sexy 1970s. Think disco and divas, because that’s exactly what’s on offer at Cloudland, as well as flares, platforms, hot pants and go-go boots. The Fortitude Valley venue channels the essence of the only New York nightclub that mattered at the time.

'90s Back to Life Dance Party

There’s just something about celebrating the end of the year by stepping back in time: next stop, the 1990s. You lived through it, so you know what you’re in for: everything from neon and leggings to flannelette shirts and Doc Martens to cargo pants and backwards caps. You’re also in for the biggest club hits and dance anthems of the decade.

Aria's New Year's Eve Dinner

If New Year’s Eve isn’t an excuse to get all dolled up and treat yourself to a fancy meal at an expensive restaurant, well, nothing is. Whether you’ve been to celebrity chef Matt Moran’s Brisbane establishment before, or if this will be your first time, the three-course set price menu will get your mouth watering.

London Calling

As much as we might want to be, we can’t all be on the other side of the world when 2015 commences — but we can certainly pretend we are. The folks at The Fox are throwing the best British celebration outside of Britain, with themed spaces including the Tanqueray Centre Stage, The Pimms Palace and the Kate Moss Rooftop Bar.

New Year's Geek

Who says cosplay is just for conventions? Not Brisbane Powerhouse and Supanova, that’s for sure. For everyone who has wanted to break out their favourite pop culture costume on the biggest night of the year, the city’s coolest riverside venue and the country’s number one fan event combine to throw a different kind of New Year’s Eve party.

Woodford Folk Festival 2014/15

New Years Eve at Black Bear Lodge

If your New Year’s resolutions are to be a) more honest with yourself and b) save money, then December 31 might be the perfect time to put them in action. It takes an honest person to accept that on New Year’s Eve (after a few drinks) money is bound to be burnt. Black Bear Lodge has the perfect solution to keep your bank account intact.
