Looking for a New Year’s Eve bash? Below, we’ve provided a list of events in and around town. Enjoy!
GRAY’S on Main
332 Main St, Franklin
GRAY’S on Main prides itself on throwing events that harken back to the restaurant’s historical roots. On December 31, the venue will toast to the New Year while once again nodding to the past: a vintage Vaudeville-themed event titled “Mo-Jazz Revue” will include a prix fixe menu, live entertainment and a musical walk-through of the decades.
From 8 p.m. ‘til 1 a.m., New Year’s Eve guests can expect an evening filled with dancing, musical entertainment and a supper club-like atmosphere. In addition to the diverse ambience, guests will be able to enjoy gourmet appetizers and handcrafted cocktails that celebrate the theme. From Josephine Baker to Frank Sinatra, from the Charleston to the Twist—partygoers will have a chance to dance through the decades with the soulful sounds of Marquee Mayfield.
Those who wish to attend can purchase a single ticket for $65 or a couples ticket for $100—each including heavy appetizers, a drink ticket, the Marquee Mayfield performance and a champagne toast. Guests are encouraged to channel their best Moulin Rouge impressions, and break out their swankiest attire.
On New Year’s Eve, GRAY’S is also accepting reservations on its first floor from 5:00 p.m. until midnight for a chef-selected, four-course meal and complimentary glass of champagne for a cost of $75 per person. Guests who wish to participate in both the downstairs chef-selected meal and the New Year’s Eve party can do so for $110 per person.
