New Year's Eve at Crystal Tea Ballroom - Philly's Best New Year's Eve Party!
New Year's Eve 2025 in PhiladelphiaThe Crystal Tea Room - Center City8pm (doors open) - 2am (last call 1:30am)
New Year's Eve is all about your friends, the party, what's included, and the location - and this year, we have the very best option at Philly's most exclusive venue - The Crystal Tea Room!  NYE at the Crystal Tea Room will be the most well-attended, fun, and talked about New Year's Eve event ever in Philadelphia. Now in it's 20th year, it's been sold out every single year prior.  This year, over 1,500 guests will again "dress up, get down and ring in the New Year right" in multiple party rooms & areas with top Philly-area DJs complete with a laser & light show getting you to party the night away.  View Event-Action videos from past NYE Gala's below!


Join Us for Philly's LIVE "Liberty Bell Drop"!
Close your eyes and picture it:  It's a few minutes before midnight and the clock is counting down.  Then we hit 11:59pm and our own special lit up Liberty Bell starts to fall.  We inch closer to the new year and then everyone starts to shout "10, 9, 8...." all the way to "1"...  As the clock strikes 12, The Liberty Bell stops and balloons fall on the crowd at the stroke of midnight to ring in the new year.  WOW IS RIGHT!  There will be something truly amazing happening at this event.  Philly's only Liberty Bell Drop™ - a moment you'll never forget and you can only experience it at the NYE Gala.



WHAT TO EXPECT VIDEO
 
About The Venue
Chandeliers dripping in crystal surround you in Philly’s crown jewel, and the Crystal Tea Room is nothing short of an architectural gem. Perched atop the iconic Wannamaker Building, which once housed the most popular department store in Philadelphia, the Crystal Tea room is a landmark in its own right. Historic yet refined with contemporary embellishments, this venue is a structural phenomenon highlighted by intricately-carved columns, elaborate crown molding, and an expansive dance floor. The list of noteworthy events that have taken place here is endless with celebrities such as Tim McGraw and Faith Hill hosting iconic evenings.  The most sought-after event in Philadelphia year after year is sure to outdo itself this December! 
About The Party
The best venue, tons of bars & bartenders (no long lines for drinks!), complimentary soft drinks & bottled water, and a "to go" table with philly soft pretzels, the hottest crowd, live DJ concert with Philly's best DJs on stage, professional photographers and videographer, giant ball drop screens, dancing, martinis, champagne, people watching, multiple rooms, separate VIP area, great food buffets, and premium / top-shelf (VIPs) name-brand drinks.
Spend this New Year’s Eve in the heart of Philadelphia at the most jaw-dropping site the city has to offer, The Crystal Tea Room. This NYE celebration is nothing short of legendary, selling out each year since its inauguration in 2006.  The stunning ballroom in the penthouse of the historic Wannamaker Building celebrates the most important night of the year with an impressive level of grandeur.
Enjoy a heart-pounding countdown topped off by Philly’s biggest balloon drop, Liberty Belle drop, and a complimentary champagne toast.
Dine with friends from a buffet-style food stations that meets the finest culinary standards from the renowned Finley Catering Company’s executive chef.
VIPs can party in a separate, private VIP atrium area so we can cater to our VIPs in style with raw bar, butlered hors d'oeuvres, food buffets, carving station, top-shelf bars, and more. We get this question all the time - this is NOT a couples-only event, it's perfect for large groups (click "contact the organizer" above if you have a group of 20+ people for extra discounts) as well as smaller groups of guys or gals looking for an amazing NYE party.
