Spend New Year's Eve Drinking B.Nektar

Everyone is ready to say goodbye to 2016 and hello to 2017, but there are a lot of cool parties to choose from. If you're looking for a night out on the town that features a chic dimly lit space with great drinks and one of a kind spirits, you might want to check out the B.Nektar Meadery New Year's Eve Party at their brew house in Ferndale, Michigan. The Detroit based meadery brews up unique libations like Zombie Killer and Necromangocon and serves them on tap in their brew house. But, for NYE they are stepping it up and doing something special.

They will be bringing out a few special brews throughout the night and serving them until they are gone. This includes The Zombies Take Manhattan from 8 p.m. 'til gone. Cherry Amburana from 8 p.m. until 10 p.m. and Dragons are Real from 10:50 till 11:50 p.m. LazyBones Smokehouse will also be parked outside serving up BBQ throughout the night. The Meadery will open at 2 p.m. on NYE and close its doors well after the ball drops at 2 a.m. that night. They will not be selling bottles, only serving up pours. So don't even ask!

Win Tickets to See Tunde Olaniran Perform at El Club this New Year's Eve

Most of us can agree that 2016 wasn't the year that we thought it would be. We lost a lot of amazing people and changed the direction of our country. Many of us are nervous about what 2017 will bring, but we are embracing life with open arms.

This weekend we will celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of a new one. And, there is no better way to celebrate the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017 then by heading up to El Club to watch Tunde Olaniran perform at midnight this year. He is the perfect person to put a smile on your face and bring you hope for the future. He is one of the most powerful performers and social justice warriors this city has ever seen and he will be casting a spell of protection and performing rituals of resistance alongside Nordy, Mother Cyborg, Little Animal and Edgeslayer. El Club will be a safe space for all those who are open minded and want to have a good time. Closed-mindedness, racism, sexism and transphobia are not welcome to come to the party.

Tickets to get in are $10 in advance and $15 at the door the day of the show. Doors for the show open at 9 p.m. El Club will be hosting a free champagne toast at midnight and good music will be playing all night. This will be the only place where you might be able to forget about the past and move towards a better future. Grab your tickets today or enter to win a pair courtesy of Party Store Productions. If you would like to enter to win a pair please email your full name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with the subject line #tunde. We will draw one lucky winner on NYE and they will get to attend this hip bash with a friend for free!

We hope your New Year's is fun, fabulous and freaky!
