Overview

Kick off 2016 like they do in the Hamptons with an epic New Year's Day shindig at the Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel. This beloved harbourside haven is teaming up with the iconic Hamptons venue The Surf Lodge for a summer pop-up by the water — and it all begins on January 1 with a hectic, hedonistic, private beach party.

Located in Montauk on Long Island, The Surf Lodge is best known for its outdoor music concerts featuring the likes of Patti Smith, Solange Knowles, Willie Nelson and the Flaming Lips. This time around The Surf Lodge is flying in Michigan-born, LA-based singer songwriter BØRNS to headline the party. Celebrated for his signature blend of psychedelic indie pop, BØRNS will perform an intimate set of tracks taken from his debut album Dopamine. The supporting lineup will include Australian electronic goalkickers like Set Mo, Deutsch Duke, Oli Benz and Dan Single.

There are three ticket types, GA, VIP and VIP Lounges. GA tickets get you access into the Beach Club, kicking off at 12pm. You'll have live DJs, henna tattoos, a photobooth, freebies, prizes and roving entertainment all day until 6pm. VIP tickets will get you exclusive bar and balcony access (with pretty views of Sydney Harbour), plus complimentary drinks and nibbles from 12pm to 2pm. You can enjoy the party in the sun on the balcony during the day, and move into the Sunset Room for an afterparty when the sun goes down. And if you really want to go all out, the VIP Lounges are $3000 each and will get you six VIP tickets, one magnum of champagne, four cocktail carafes, 12 beers and an exclusive lounge in Sunset Room from 12pm to 6pm.

Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel's summer pop-up will run from New Year’s Day (launching with The Surf Lodge) through to Australia Day on January 26, and will feature various live music and lifestyle events to be revealed in the coming month.
