There are countless ways to celebrate one year coming to a close as we look forward to new beginnings. Order your Christmas feast from a local venue and ring in the New Year with a champagne kit delivered to your doorstep. If you’re still searching for last minute gifts, our Venue Partners have you covered. NYC’s Leonelli ships “When in Italy” gift bags and holiday cookie decorating kits. Chef Luigi from Aperto in DC crafted a limoncello trio and Boston’s Puritan & Company makes it easy ship a surprise dinner for one (or two!) to loved ones on your list.

See below for some of our favorite holiday options, including ticketed virtual events that will keep your social calendar busy through the New Year. We’ll be updating as we hear of new events so you’ll want to keep this post handy!
