About the party
Joonbug presents Gala in Paradise, a New Year's Eve party at Margaritaville Resort Times Square, from 7 PM to 2 AM. Select tickets include a partial view of the Times Square Ball Drop.
What to expect
A tropical-themed NYE across several party spaces, with live DJs, a 5-hour premium open bar for guests 21 and over, light food, and a midnight toast with champagne for adults or sparkling soft drinks for younger guests. VIP packages add mezzanine access and table service. My take: aimed at friends and families of mixed ages who want to celebrate close to the ball drop.

Live DJs playing Top 40, pop, hip-hop and party favorites, per the promoter. No DJ names are published.
