If you’re looking for an out of the ordinary activity for the whole family to enjoy, Escape Rooms are a fantastic option. Celebrate the New Year by “escaping” the old. There are Escape Rooms across Toronto and Mississauga, many of which are open New Year’s Eve.
#ROMNYE invites you to dance the night away with live bands, DJs and a toast at midnight. The night includes exclusive access to special collections, appetizers and drinks. The setting couldn’t be more unique – mingle with your friends alongside dinosaurs and rare world artifacts!
Every year, thousands gather for a “crawl” of club venues across the city of Toronto. Say farewell to 2017 with music and dance at three of the city’s premiere downtown venues. At midnight, confetti and balloons will drop as the the clock runs out on 2017.
If you’re looking for something a bit more active to participate in, you can join fellow runners for a 5km run at the stroke of midnight, and start 2018 with a post race party. Participants will receive a swag bag, and a glass of beer or champagne.
