Concerts can feature  a mainstream artist, could be a musical or a comedy show with some tunes too! Who doesn’t want to welcome the New Year with a great laugh, right?

Maybe a duet?

 

Another way to make your countdown more fun is by singing all your worries away with karaoke. There is no better way for locals to bond with their family on New Year’s Eve than belting their hearts out to their favorite karaoke song playing in the background. You can either book a private room or even join a live karaoke event just like the previous Shoe's Pub Karaoke NYE Party last year. This event includes a champagne toast, appetizers, and non-stop singing!
