NYE at The Shelborne
Sitting poolside on the coldest night of the year is actually possible in Miami! Sounds great, but this writeup lacks depth and focuses too much on nearby attractions rather than itself. more

Yes, I am somewhat jealous that Miami is warm enough for a poolside event at New Years'. You get a free makeover if you arrive early. I guess that's good? (You wouldn't want a free haircut, right?) more

The Spam All Stars New Years
The good news: it's on the beach. The bad news: they put "spam" right in the event's title, and it comes with a porn star celebrity. Now that's not classy. (Yes, she was in a movie, but she played a call girl.) more

Get Wet 2012 New Years Eve
If it's warm enough to swim on New Years Eve, why not flaunt it? I totally support an outdoor venue that has a pool and is by the water. If you really have Miami's "hottest female DJ", why not name her? Is she a brand name DJ? more

Here's another trick. When an event description says "and more", or "plus surprises", don't expect much. Still, with a "martini station" and "chocolate fountain", I would bet that this venue is more creative than most. That's some C$165 price, but dinner & open bar are included! more

Do I want my entertainment to be VICIOUS? Is an all-you-can-drink option the best way to build a good energy and a good crowd? Is the "heated smoking patio" for everyone or does it get stifling with smoke? There are some red flags here, but I like that they'll have two rooms of music. more

ENCHANTE' - NYE 2012 at MAISON
The photograph has the party guests lying around as if drunk or taking part in an orgy. Yet this New Years Eve party limits age to 25+ (men) and 23+ (women), indicating that they don't want the brazenly wanton attending. It takes more than appetizers and champagne to make an event stand out on New Years'. more

The good news -- the venue is huge, and they serve a real dinner, and 3 different dance ballrooms, with 25 DJs. That's so that when the first 24 DJs get tired of pushing a button on their iPod, they have a 25th one. The bad news: they claim they will sell out, so expect limited elbow room at this one. more

DISCO New Years at Post Modern
Is Disco back? I hope not, but since Discotheque is French for "nightclub", let's give this venue the benefit of the doubt. And they feature name brand DJs. I couldn't find a review of the venue, but the vague description and door price indicate not the classiest. more

So here's a "crawl", and I sort of don't get it. New Years is cold. Once you've settled into a good bar, why would you want to hop to the next, especially when the buses run on a schedule so you may feel compelled to leave sooner or later than you'd like? This one's strictly for students, being your 18+, low-price option. more

A lot is wrong with this event writeup. First off, there is no event that's perfect for both couples and singles. They want totally different things.

I really don't get how a DJ becomes "internationally acclaimed". You aren't suggesting that your DJs can outcompete live music, right? This description is VERY well-worded, but read carefully and it's another generic bar event. Still... C$50 for open bar may just be the cheapest around. more

Stir New Years
This seems to be a combination restaurant and martini bar. You have to be skeptical when their description touts having three flat-screen TVs as a reason to go. And "the DJ's selections will jog across your memory long after you leave"? What? Who writes like that? No brain jogging, please. more
