Nautical New Year's Eve

Overview

Three questions, New Year's Eve partygoers: What's your preferred view? Where would you like to pretend to be? Are you in for a concentrated burst of fun, or for the long haul? If you answered river vantages, on the sea and a hefty chuck of time, then set sail for Riverland's Nautical New Year's Eve.

The numbers speak for themselves: 50 metres of open-air river frontage, 80 feet of bar space, five authentic street kitchens, five-and-a-half hours of food and drinks, and $180 for the lot. You'll only see 2018 once, after all. Dressing for the occasion — something stripey if you're lazy, whatever nautical wonder you can come up with if you're feeling creative  — is encouraged. And, you'll have one of the best outlooks in the city.
