2011 is just about here, and ringing in the new year in Philadelphia is absolutely one of my favorite things to do. Whether it's partying with crazy/drunk/old men with gold shoes (not the kind that lurk around dark corners) or popping bottles of champagne in sparkly attire from rooftops the night before, the past seven years of celebrating NYE here have all been so very memorable.
So, what am I doing this year? Well, New Year's Day there is no question that I will be dancing right along with the best of the Mummers (sans the terrifically, tacky costume) on Two Street bright and early with drink in hand after some much needed brunch (hangover food). However, New Year's Eve night, after gathering with friends for food and drink at the apartment, we will be heading to the annual R5 Making Time New Year's Eve Freak-out event which is being held this year at 90 degrees (formerly Transit). Making Time got its starts at Transit years ago, and now they're bringing it back for a sure to be excellent time. A ticket to this event includes three floors of dancing, various DJs throughout the night, an open bar from 9 pm - 2 am, and a Midnight countdown complete with champagne and balloon drop. Oh, and don't forget about the secret, after-party location!
An event like this should be experienced at least once by those living in Philadelphia, whether you're single and looking to mingle ;) or just want to "freak-out" to some good tunes with friends. This just happens to be my very first Making Time event, and I have a feeling it will live up to all of the hype that surrounds it. I will be sure to report back all of the details when my head stops pounding and my ears are done ringing. Have a Happy New Year!
