NYEx10 at Big Bar

Most New Year’s Eve parties in L.A. celebrate the stroke of midnight on the West Coast, and a bunch mark the ball drop on the East Coast, as well. But Big Bar celebrates the occasion with 10 countdowns. That’s nine themed cocktails (for purchase) and one complimentary champagne toast at midnight. This year’s Lord of the Rings theme takes you to Middle Earth and back again, starting at the Shire (with free Bilbo’s birthday cake shots for those who arrive before 3pm) and ending at Mount Doom, where they’ll literally ring in the new year by dropping the ring into a volcano.
