How about stepping into an alternate world for New Year’s Eve? (You mean one where we aren’t watching TV in sweats and wondering when Dick Clark himself is going to drop? No way! Yes, way!) Posh Portland hotel The Nines is throwing an Alice and Wonderland themed “Through the Looking Glass” New Year’s bash, and one lucky Neat Sheet reader can win a $75 deal on this hot ticket.
“We have an amazing New Year’s Eve Party planned,” said Laura Van Daal, of The Nines. “We are going to do a very cool, elegant and somewhat edgy take on the ‘Through the Looking Glass’ theme. It should be great!” The party takes place in The Nines’ Grand Ballroom, where you’ll be treated to a wintry wonderland’s worth of magical decor, entertainment from local DJs and the MarchFourth marching band, party favors and a champagne toast at midnight.
Wanna win? To enter, just send an e-mail with the subject line “THE NINES” to neatsheet@karenvitt.com, or Subscribe to The Neat Sheet from the home page. We’ll pick a lucky winner by random drawing at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 30. The winner gets a FREE $75 party ticket with the purchase of one full-priced ticket. Not a bad deal on the most coveted year-end tickets in town.
Departure, the hotel’s swanky rooftop lounge (above), and Urban Farmer steakhouse on the 8th Floor each are offering special New Year’s Eve seatings. And if you want to make an even more glamorous night of it, the hotel offers two fun New Year’s packages: Dance + Dream Package, which includes two tickets to the party plus hotel accommodations for two starting at $299; or a Dine + Dream Package, which includes dinner on the 6th Floor, tickets to the party and accommodations for two starting at $449. Visit The Nines’ “Through the Looking Glass” Web page for more package details.
