About this party

The Rex has announced its annual New Year's Eve celebration for Thursday, 31 December 2026, with Brenda Earle Stokes opening at 8 pm and Grooveyard playing from 9:30 pm until after midnight. Doors and dinner service open at 7:30 pm, with no earlier entry.

The venue's linked shop lists seats at $85 plus tax, including all performances and a celebratory drink at midnight. Food is ordered separately from the à-la-carte menu, and a cash bar operates through the evening; this is not an open-bar or included-dinner package. Seats are assigned ahead of time by purchase date. Larger parties may be split across nearby tables, while solo guests may share with other patrons.

No exact final finish is confirmed: the calendar's 11:59 pm endpoint does not describe the published after-midnight band set. The shop states a $10 cancellation fee through 21 December and no refunds afterward.

Directions

Plan your ride home before you head out. Check the TTC and GO Transit's New Year's Eve service plan: late or extra service is often announced in December. Book a taxi or rideshare early, because demand peaks right after midnight, and never drink and drive.
