Cloud 9 Yacht New Years Eve
All Ages / Family Friendly top NYE cruise
Event Description
What better way to ring in 2027 NYE than aboard the Cloud 9 IV Yacht surrounded by a view of the Manhattan skyline? This all ages fireworks dinner cruise combines panoramic Manhattan skyline views with climate controlled interiors, comfortable lounge seating, outdoor viewing areas and a spacious dance floor. Far enough away from the Times Square madness to enjoy the evening as a local would and just close enough to experience the world renowned New York celebration of the New Year with a view of the fireworks show in the harbor.
Begin the evening with butler-passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by a five-course dinner buffet featuring filet mignon, grilled salmon, chicken marsala, penne alla vodka, seasonal sides and desserts. Guests 21 and older with valid identification can enjoy a deluxe open bar from 8:30 PM to 1:00 AM. A live DJ will provide the soundtrack for an evening of dancing and celebration on New York Harbor.
As midnight approaches, step onto the outdoor deck to take in the illuminated New York City skyline and views of the harbor fireworks. Boarding begins at 8:30 PM, and the yacht departs promptly at 9:00 PM. Return is anticipated between 1:00 and 1:30 AM, although the exact docking time may vary based on harbor traffic and operating conditions. Upscale cocktail attire is recommended, and advance reservations are strongly encouraged.
