3.  MUSEUM BAR presents Black Hollywood 2013 as the theme for their NYE extravaganza as well. A few of the ladies from Basketball Wives LA are hosting. The venue is huge (15 K square feet) and beautiful so it should be a great party if you are looking for something large and lavish.

It's being held at one of the largest mansions in Georgia and from the pictures, it is truly lavish. They promise to dazzle you with the landscape (over 20 acres), exotic animals, bright lights and a magnificent mansion that makes for a remarkable venue.

For New Year's Eve, they are offering a "hard to beat" all inclusive package which consists of a 3 course meal, 1 bottle of champagne or 2 glasses of house wine, party favors and tax and gratuity for just $45.00 per person! It's not just dining either; they will have a DJ providing entertainment so come ready to party.
3752 Cascade Road Atlanta, GA 30331 (404) 472-2424

10. BUCKHEAD BOTTLE BAR: If you follow this blog, you know that BBB is one of my favorite spots. So of course I'm recommending it for a great place to usher in 2013 and this is probably where 2013 will find me. I love the music, ambiance, staff and decor. My favorite bartender mixes great drinks and I always have a good time here. Check the site tomorrow for pricing and additional details. I'm meeting with Solomon, general manager, to see if I can get something special for my loyal followers. I know it's last minute but hold tight!!
268 East Paces Ferry Road Northeast Atlanta, GA 30305

11.  OPERA: The fabulous Opera is always a great place to get fly and fall into. For NYE you can expect to enjoy its 5 unique atmospheres, 12 bars with 30 bartenders, a gourmet buffet and the largest balloon drop in the city. Doors will open at 8:00 PM and pricing is as follows: General Admission - $30.00; Open Premium Bar admission (girls only) $70.00 includes gourmet buffet and open premium bar. For the fellas, it's slightly higher, $90.00. VIP Open Premium Bar admission is $139.00 and includes all of the above plus VIP Admission and access to the 2nd Level (VIP Area). Tickets can be purchased through Event Brite.

12.  REIGN: A beautiful decor, a young, sexy clientele. What more could you want? Reign will offer a champagne toast, a balloon drop and hot music by DJ Weaponz. General Admission: $40.00; VIP Admission: $100.00 which includes express entry with a $100.00 bar spend. Doors open at 9:00 PM and tickets can be purchased on their website through Event Brite. 
1021 Peachtree Northeast Atlanta, GA 30309

13.  ONYX: Yes, I have listed a strip club as my 13th New Year's Eve party spot. First of all, we are in the "A" and it's no secret that Atlanta is famous, or should I say infamous, for its CRAZY strip clubs. So if it's your preference to bring your new year in looking at bouncing Ta Ta's (among other things), I recommend Onyx. Admission is just $10.00 all night long and they will have an open Ciroc Bar from 10:00 PM til 11:00 while supplies last. That sounds flaky, but those supplies better last until at least 11:00 PM! Over 60 Onyx girls will be on site and DJ AK will make them "drop it like it's hot" all night. Of course they will provide a complimentary champagne toast at midnight. 
1888 Cheshire Bridge Road  Atlanta, GA 30324 (404) 876-9992
