New Years in Savannah, Savannah Events

The New Year is looming, why not treat yourself to New Years in Savannah?  The annual Tybee Pier Fireworks are lit at midnight, but before that there are plenty of area events to help you say goodbye to 2011 and hello to 2012!  Here are just a few events to choose from.

The Westin New Year's Bash is a traditional celebration with activities for the entire family.  Beginning at 10:00 am, this family-friendly celebration features foot races, live music by Big Daddy Weave and much more!

City Market offers a free outdoor street party with live music all evening!  This free outdoor street event happens all evening, and live music will be featured between 9:00 pm and 1:00 am.  If you plan on dinner at one of the great restaurants in the Market, reservations are strongly encouraged.

Savannah Riverboat Cruises offers events all evening on December 31, 2011.  It all begins with a 2-hour dinner cruise complete with music and buffet at 7:00 pm.  A 4-hour New Year's Eve Gala Dinner begins at  8:00 pm with a Captains reception, gourmet dinner buffet, a bottle of house champagne or wine, party favors, live bands, and cash bar.  A New Year's Celebration Party complete with music and favors at 10:00 pm.

Jazz’d Tapas is hosting a Studio 54-themed NYE bash, complete with 70's (and modern) hits, disco lights and decorations.  Expect revelers to dress the part!  If you want to guarantee a place at this party, $75 a person buys you their famous Tapas for Two, a champagne split, party favors, and your own private table for the entire evening, even if you leave the building!  Yes, you can eat, hit the town, and then come back to your private table to enjoy the rest of the night!  However, reservations are not necessary, as the bar is open to the public the entire evening.

On New Year's Day, 2012 you can take part in the annual Tybee Polar Plunge!  Benefitting the Tybee Post Theater, the official event begins at noon at the Tybee Pier.  Find a group of 4 or more and sign up to take the plunge!  However, you're welcome to simply watch the festivities, costumes, and fun.  Who will win the coveted Le Goofs Trophy in 2012?  You can also help us break a World Record whether or not you're swimming:  The Guiness World Record attempt to break the Largest Gathering of People Wearing Swim Caps, will begin at 11:45 and must last at least 10 minutes (there is a $25 fee to participate).


These are just the highlights, any of our great innkeepers will be glad to suggest additional New Year's Eve options during your visit!  So make your reservations NOW at your favorite Savannah Inn for New Year's, 2011-2012!  Your room, and the entire city, will be awaiting your arrival!
