Starting off 2011 in Gateway City? Then there is hardly a reason to fret since St. Louis provides limitless options for how to celebrate New Year’s Eve this year. As one of the leading cities in urban revitalization, St. Louis provides a great mix for both those that want to take in the New Year’s Eve nightlife versus those that would prefer to take it easy.

If you’re itching to get out on the town come this New Year’s Eve, make a beeline for the 2011 New Years Eve Ball hosted at the St. Louis Airport Hilton. Hailed as one of the “Best New Year’s Eve Events in St. Louis” by the Riverhead Times, the crowd is treated to an exquisite three course meal, a premium open bar, and a live musical performance from the Midwest rock band “Contagious”. The grand ballroom will transform into a concert venue, helping the crowd to relish in the moments leading up the midnight champagne toast.

Anyone looking for venues that are less extravagant should consider many of St. Louis’ local bars, lounges and restaurants to celebrate their New Year’s Eve. The dancing and drinks will be flowing all night long at Club LUNA alongside some of St. Louis’ hottest people. If perhaps dinner is more of the occasion, The Broadway Oyster Bar offers a Cajun Celebration. Starting at 10PM, the event allows dinners to not only savor every bite of their dinner, but enjoy blues and reggae music up until, and even beyond, the clock striking midnight.

Family friendly activities are also plenty in the Gateway City, with one of the biggest attractions being “Family Fun” at First Night St. Louis. Drawing expected crowds of roughly 15,000 people, this event alcohol free and gives families the opportunity to bond and partake in singing, dancing and art. The night ends with a bang that will keep both parents and children smiling as a spectacular fireworks display sets off at midnight.

With so much to do for your New Year’s Eve celebration, you will be guaranteed to start off the new year with fun, excitement and bountiful memories.
