About the party

NewYears.com presents a New Year's Eve party cruise aboard the Hornblower Infinity, boarding at Pier 15, 78 South Street, in the Financial District on Thursday, December 31. Boarding starts at 9:30 PM, the yacht leaves at 10:30 PM and returns at 1:30 AM, with the midnight fireworks seen from the water.

What to expect

Three climate-controlled decks with LED lighting, sound systems and dance floors, per the listing, plus a four-hour premium open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres, buffet stations and a midnight champagne toast. It is billed as black-tie optional. My take: this is for people who want a dressed-up New Year's Eve on the water with a DJ and dancing, not a club lineup.

Music and lineup

The listing says one of the city's DJs plays through the voyage but does not name them or a genre. Set times are not published.

Before you go

Boarding is at 9:30 PM and the boat departs at 10:30 PM sharp; it returns at 1:30 AM. It is 21+ only. The yacht boards at Pier 15, 78 South Street. The organizer says it is not responsible if you miss the boat, so allow travel time and expect a wait outside. The listing says the cruise goes ahead in any weather, that the route can change at the direction of the Coast Guard or local authorities, and that the fireworks are up to the city and the weather. Coat check and accessibility are not stated.

Refunds (Eventbrite): The listing shows no refunds.
