So you’ve got a bunch of mates together, decided that it’s time for one serious party and made sure that everyone’s booked off a suitable amount of days to allow for a relaxed recovery period in January. Just one problem though; you can’t actually decide where you’ll be going this New Year’s Eve.

It’s true that some people view NYE as the most overblown, overpriced and downright disappointing nights of the year. But those of us with more positive outlooks on life know that it can also represent the absolute pinnacle of the yearly clubbing diary…as long as the party you’ve chosen to attend lives up to the high standards you should expect.

While we can’t assure you that you won’t lose your mates, or end up having to take the first few days of the year off sick, we’d like to think that we could help with the problem of where to go. So here for your consideration are all the places around the world where we’ll be throwing down at the end of the month. We can guarantee that the music will be nothing but the finest house music until the early hours, and hopefully a fine way to welcome in the new decade.
