About the party

Joonbug presents New Year's Eve on the 31st-floor rooftop of Margaritaville Resort Times Square, with views of the Ball Drop and the Manhattan skyline.

What to expect

A 5-hour premium open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres, a live DJ, and a champagne toast as the ball drops. VIP packages with private seating and bottle service are offered. My take: for people who want a Ball Drop view without standing in the street.

Music and lineup

A live DJ playing top 40, hip-hop, house and mashups, per the description. No DJ is named.
