The method

## How I picked these

Every spot here has posted its 2026 New Year's Eve plans on its own site, a press release or a ticketing page. I checked each one in early November 2026 and linked the source. No recycled 2025 events and no guesses on pricing. Prices and times can change, so confirm when you book.
