NYE Party Vibe and Amenities
Rising above Times Square's lights, the Margaritaville famed two-story party space hosts a sprawling affair with a 21+ party scene and all-ages entertainment. Expect all kinds of festive amenities, starting with a 5-hour premium open bar. It’s time to dance, drink, and indulge in some of Margaritaville’s famed lite fare as you anticipate the arrival of the New Year.

As the New Year dawns, guests grab a glass of sparkly (soft drink for the underage) compliments of the open bar to toast the New Year. With a glass in hand, the DJ leads the crowd in a fist-pumping countdown, with everyone chanting Happy New Year.

About Margaritaville Resort
The Margaritaville Resort Times Square stands out from its Times Square rivals by bringing Jimmy Buffett's easy-going tropical paradise concept to the heart of Manhattan's most frenetic neighborhood. While other Times Square hotels are older and emphasize traditional hospitality approaches, Margaritaville boldly embraces its escapist identity through signature features that set it apart: a playful 32-foot-tall Statue of Liberty replica hoisting a margarita glass instead of a torch, a two-story restaurant with one of Times Square's rare outdoor dining decks, and vibrant island-themed rooms that offer a refreshing contrast to the subdued accommodations found elsewhere. For fun-filled, young-at-heart travelers seeking something beyond the conventional, Margaritaville delivers an unmistakably unique Times Square experience.
