In case you’ve been a lazy slug about making plans for New Year’s Eve fun, we’re gonna give you every option we can find for LGBTQ/allied Seattle that we could find…after all, it’s the least we could do to help you welcome in the start of the Roaring 2020s!!
This year, New Year’s Eve is on a Tuesday, which frankly, kind of sucks. I mean, who the hell is revved up to go out on a TUESDAY??!!? It’s such a meh day, even during a holiday week. (Next year, NYE is on a Thursday which is so much more doable…)
Fortunately, there are lots of options for folks (though, to be frank, I’m not seeing much going on for anyone under the age of 21…you’d think someone would be pro-active and produce an event for that audience. If there’s something out there that’s LGBTQ friendly, let me know.)
There are even a few female/femme centric choices this year including HER Seattle: The Renaissance – A NYE Celebration at The Hard Rock Cafe and Queery Seattle’s New Years at Pacific Room . And, even fan boys/girls have an option with Seattle Gaymers NYE Party!
And, of course there are major parties at Queer Bar, Neighbours, The Cuff, Fred Wildlife, and pretty much every LGBTQ venue in town (though oddly RPlace hasn’t posted anything about a special NYE event).
If you don’t won’t to deal with a packed bar/club then you might check out Comedy Countdown to NYE with Out Gay Comedian Guy Branum over in Bellevue at the Meydenbauer Center…
OR, if you have $250 to spare, then spend NYE at Ground Zero of Seattle NYE Fun…that’ll get you up in the Space Needle for their party and huge fireworks show at midnight.
Here’s the whole list!
