Celebrating Seattle, New Year’s Parties

21 December 2009 By Edy Kizaki View Comments

If these three words strike your heart like lightening as they did mine (underwater dance floor) you’ll want to be at the Bonza Bash at the Seattle Aquarium. This New Year’s Eve 2010 party is a first, as they say on the website, the inaugural bash, billed as A Diamond Night in the Emerald City.  At $75 per ticket or $230 for the VIP package, it’s about equivalent to the other AMAZING parties out there this year.  This one features the Mach One Jazz Orchestra.  Oh, and did I mention the underwater dance floor?  It’s for a good cause, too, supporting conservation work done by the Seattle Aquarium.  It’s black tie or cocktail attire (hey, go with the black tie!) and the mood is diamond bright!  And don’t forget the underwater dance floor.

Giving the Bash some serious competition are two major parties, one is DList Magazine’s “New Year’s Eve 2010″ being held at Fremont Film Studios (9 p.m. to 2 a.m.).  If you haven’t at least been in the neighborhood when the Studios are lit up with a celebrity event, noticed the strings of limos and party-goers approaching (the friendly smiles of the Valet guys tell us it’s Fremont after all) then you’ll want to make it a point to attend something there, and here is a great possibility.  General admission is $55 and Ryan Leslie is featured along with DJ Ikon.  21+, dress to impress!

But wait, it gets even more tempting with the 8th Annual all-out bash at EMP!  It’s called “Indulgence 2010“, a party featuring varied music, many dance floors, national music acts, hot DJs, comedians, great experiences!  There are tickets for $60 as well as VIP packages at $189 and $350.  And views of the Space Needle and City Lights.  Actually, I wanna go.  Problem is, I wanna go to all three, and then there’s the all night cruise, the Rock the Boat party that starts out at the Islander Yacht Club, boarding and pre-funk starts at 9 p.m., boat leaves the dock by 10:30 p.m., and parks about 20 minutes before midnight at the South End of Lake Union to watch the fireworks.  The tickets are $70, it’s usually a private party but this year for the first time has been opened to everyone, black tie attire.  Oh, I forgot, the event is hosted by Harrison Wood from Kube 93 and the music is slated to be “the best hip hop and R&B”… all night!  Let’s!  The Islander Yacht Club is at 1611 Fairview Ave E in Seattle.

There are warnings abroad that any and all of these just might sell out so if you are going to one it’s recommended to get your tickets early (so I’m posting it now to give you a week).  And don’t forget to post your comments and photos so we can all enjoy!  Happy New Year, Seattle!
