-

Preparatio­ns are on full swing at The Kingsbury, Colombo as the hotel dons its party shoes at the Honey Beach Club and CÉ LA VI. Continuing with their seasonal theme of “Merry and Masked”, The Kingsbury is mindful of providing responsibl­e and safe ways for you to celebrate New Year’s Eve.

2020 is a year that faced several challenges in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. The life lessons were plenty, the struggles more so. A year that encouraged everyone to see beyond the obvious, break new ground and to address challenges as opportunit­ies. 2020 is also the year that stands as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. The time has now come to bid goodbye to the year that was with a sigh of relief and welcome 2021 with hope and open arms, keeping in mind the need for celebratin­g in a responsibl­e manner.

If you are in the mood for a beach party vibe head over to the Honey Beach Club where DJS Mitchell and Nick will have you dancing 31st night away. DJ Mitchell works at one of the leading radio stations in Sri Lanka while DJ Nick is well-known in the event management field. If a sophistica­ted ambiance is what you prefer, head over to the rooftop lounge - CÉ LA VI - where DJ Mark will hold sway, while you let the twinkling lights of the cityscape below remind of you the brighter prospects of the future. With experience in both Dubai and Sri Lanka, DJ Mark is known for dabbling in a wide range of music genres. If a quiet intimate evening is what you prefer, you can head over to Yue Chuan, The Ocean, The Harbour Court or The King’s Steak Bar.

Keen to celebrate away from the hustle and bustle of city life? Why not head over to Amaya Hills in Kandy, Amaya Lake in Dambulla, The Langdale or The Oliphant in Nuwara Eliya? The Amaya Resorts and Spas has made arrangemen­ts to ring in the new year amidst the picturesqu­e surroundin­gs the resort chain is blessed with.

The majestic Dambulla Lake; the misty, rolling hills of Nuwara Eliya and the verdant green mountains of Kandy will play host as a scenic backdrop for these New Year celebratio­ns. Scrumptiou­s dinner spreads, fireworks at 12 midnight, the traditiona­l auspicious ceremony of boiling milk, as well as a breakfast spread worthy of a brand new year, are all on the cards. That’s not all. Revel in the merriment and get your competitiv­e spirits flowing as the resorts’ in-house teams puts their best feet forward, with prizes, surprises and much more in store.
