If you'd like to ring in the new year dancing cheek to cheek, Sons of Hermann Hall is the place to be. Presented by The Rhythm Room, the night will kick off at 7pm with $15 barbeque plates at the door while supplies last. Before the bands start up, a dance lesson will run until 8:30pm, when The Singapore Slingers take the stage. Headlining the night and playing through the countdown is Matt Tolentino and His Swing Wing.

For years, hardcore house music fans and EDM heads have been spending their New Years Eve at Lizard Lounge. This year will likely be no different, with their booking of college aged progressive house wunderkind, 3LAU.
