It’s time to say “buh-bye” to 2025 and start anew. But before you re-up that gym membership and plan for another year of resolutions, get to Cleveland to bust out your best sparkling attire, fill the champagne glass and get ready to show 2026 who’s boss.
Music Box Supper Club
Music Box Supper Club offers four options to revel your merry way into the New Year. Looking for an early celebration? Toast at noon with a Noon Year's Eve Brunch featuring Nitebridge playing Motown classics or a Rock & Roll Brunch with a Steely Dan Tribute. As the clock ticks closer to midnight, embrace the classics with Long Time Gone with the CSNY Tribute set at 9:00 p.m., or twirl to icons like Prince and new favorites like Bruno Mars and The Weeknd with The Sunrise Jones as the clock strikes twelve.
