Get dressed up for this one – it’s Dubh Linn’s New Year's Eve Semi-Formal Event. It starts with a 3-course dinner, leads to the Dueling Pianos for entertainment and then a live DJ so you can get your groove on. Then, the countdown to midnight.

It happens this Wednesday. Doors open at 6 p.m. and dinner is served until 10:30 p.m. The Dueling Pianos start at 8:00 and the DJ starts spinning at 11.

This event is for folks age 21 and older and tickets are $35. It appears from their flyer that dinner is not included in the admission price. You do need reservations, however, if you want to have dinner.
