What to know before you book
- Book the sitting, not just the place. ARC in Coal Harbour has two seatings, at 5:30 and 8 pm: a restaurant meal rather than a party. The galas, the cruise and Monarca run past 12, so pick one of those if you want the countdown at your table.
- Check what the price covers. Some listed prices include fees; Fairmont Pacific Rim adds Eventbrite fees at checkout. Monarca's signature tables for four, six or eight cost the same per person as its dinner-and-party ticket, and dinner there is booked in groups of at least four.
- Early-bird deadlines are real. The Fairmont Pacific Rim price steps up after December 5.
- The cruise is short and fixed. The Queen of Diamonds boards at 8:30 pm, sails at 9:30 and is back at the dock at 12:30 am, so you're on board for midnight and back on land soon after.
- Burnaby has the biggest line-up. The Glitz & Glamour party at Hilton Metrotown lists eight DJs and acts across Top 40, Latin, Caribbean and Afrobeat; its price isn't posted yet.
Getting there and home
Coal Harbour and Gastown are a short walk from Waterfront Station, and Hilton Metrotown sits on the Expo Line. SkyTrain and late-service details are in the Vancouver guide's "Getting home" section.
