Champagne Wishes and Caviar Dreams: Celebrate New Year's Eve at The Portrait Ball

As the clock ticks toward midnight on December 31st, there's only one place to be for an opulent celebration—The Portrait Bar at The Fifth Avenue Hotel. This year, the bar debuts its highly anticipated Portrait Ball, a sophisticated New Year’s Eve soirée designed for those who appreciate life’s finer pleasures. From its flowing Champagne to a midnight toast, every detail promises an evening of indulgence.

For $295 per ticket (plus tax), attendees will savor:

• Flowing Champagne throughout the night, culminating in a celebratory midnight toast.

• An open bar featuring signature cocktails curated by Master Mixologist Darryl Chan, a luminary in the fine-dining bartending world.

• Gourmet passed canapés by Chef Andrew Carmellini, whose culinary artistry elevates the evening’s fare.

• Live DJ sets by Muscle Memory to keep the dance floor lively.

For those looking to take the experience up a notch, exclusive VIP tables start at $4,000 for up to 10 guests. These coveted spots include:

• Prime seating for the best views of the celebration.

• Caviar service paired with a magnum of Champagne.

• A premium bottle of your choice.

• An array of elevated snacks, canapés, and sweet bites.

Housed within the magnificently restored Fifth Avenue Hotel, The Portrait Bar is a haven of luxury and artistry. Designed by the acclaimed Martin Brudnizki Design Studio, its interiors channel the charm of Italian villas and the stately elegance of London’s finest hotel bars. Dark wood paneling, a carved stone fireplace, and a collection of over 50 portraits create a setting as indulgent as the cocktails themselves.

The Portrait Bar’s drink menu is a globe-trotter’s dream. Created by Darryl Chan, the cocktails feature unexpected ingredients that transport you to destinations like Japan, Morocco, and Mexico—all without leaving Manhattan. Accompanying the libations are Chef Andrew Carmellini’s elevated Parlor Snacks, a gastronomic tour de force.
