Red Carpet: New Year’s Eve

About this party

Buffalo Bills is going red-carpet for New Year's Eve, with a party that starts at 7 pm and promises music, dancing and celebration all the way through to midnight. The venue bills its countdown as one of the biggest in Whistler, so if your goal is a packed room shouting down the final seconds together, this is the place to aim for. The dress brief is "dress to impress", which means swapping the fleece for something sharper. Bills is part of the Gibbons group of Village venues, so entry is booked through SevenRooms, where pricing and options are listed; the calendar we checked didn't show prices. With a 7 pm start, you can arrive early, grab a spot and settle in for the night instead of trying to get in at 11. The Village is pedestrian-friendly, so you can walk back to most hotels after midnight.
