It's that time again! Join us for our NEW YEAR'S EVE GALA!

We had a phenomenal time last year at our mansion party... only downside was we had a 200 person max capacity and sold out too early!

SO, we've moved to a much larger and very luxurious venue....the Harman Center for the Arts, home of the Shakespeare Theatre Company. And we'll have 2 floors! The Harman Center is a beautiful venue in the heart of Chinatown, right across from the Chinatown Metro Stop. You've probably all seen it coming out of the Metro- modern, sleek, with the front side made entirely of glass. This place glows at night!! See the pics below:

We have a great line up for the evening. First, your ticket price includes a 5-hr premium OPEN BAR with the below brands:

And no bartender gratuities! Bartender tips are included in ticket price (a $10-$20 value). In fact, our caterer will not permit their bartenders to accept tips.

We will have 8 bartenders and 4-6 bartending stations...so no long lines!

Your ticket price also includes multiple Hors D'Oeuvres Buffets:

Our live entertainment features:

-A "Roaming” Illusionist performing unique, stimulating magic to intrigue your senses.
-Fortune Teller to see what 2010 holds for you
-Caricature Sketch Artist for your 2009 party face

And all this while the DJ gets us shaking our tail feathers in a journey through time from the 80s, 90s, and 00s!

We'll hand out Party Favors to all in preparation for the NYE Countdown and Midnight Celebration!!!

DRESS CODE is Black Tie Optional. So dress to impress! For guys, this means jacket and tie or tux. And for ladies, cocktail or formal dress. For all, creativity is encouraged! So don’t be afraid to get funky, MTV Music Award-like with your attire!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Space is limited, so sign-up early! Early-bird ticket price is only $70 from now until Nov 30th. YES, $70!!! These are tough economic times my friends, so it's our pleasure to present an alternative to those annoying $120-$160 ticket price NYE events.

Plus, ticket price includes all bartender gratuities. In fact, our caterer will not permit their bartenders to accept tips....so you DO NOT have to budget an extra $10-$20 for bartender tips.

After Nov 30th, ticket prices go up to $85, then to $99. So RSVP early....because as last year showed, these spots go fast!

Also please know that your RSVP is not guaranteed unless we receive payment. When you pay, if you receive a paypal receipt, then that is confirmation that we have received your payment.

Event will be from 9:00pm – 2:00am. Closest Metro Stop is Chinatown on the Red/Yellow/Green Line. We also recommend using wmata to plan your travels.

And in case you missed it, check out photos and comments from our 2008-2009 New Year's Eve Party.

See You There!
Jared
