It’s almost time to hold our glasses high and plant sloppy ones on the ones we love when we’ve finished counting down to midnight. Of course, there are loads of club nights, raves, and just about every nightclub and bar will open its doors to us all this NYE.

But we aren’t all fans of loud, bumping tunes and staying up until 7 am. Some of us just want some killer live music to enjoy. And as always, Skiddle is here to help you find the perfect event, so you can start the new year as you wish to go on: having a cracking time out with those you love. 

Here are some New Year’s Eve gigs for you to check out while you’re waiting for the clock to strike twelve.

It only makes sense to start a new year doing what you love. If live music fills you with joy, sack off the boring house parties and find yourself on the dancefloor, on your mates shoulders singing until you lose your voice, or down in the pit getting sweaty as you hear the opening chords to that one absolute banger. 

And if none of these New Year’s Eve live music gigs sound like your vibe, stay calm. Click or tap here to discover more live music to help you swagger into the new year properly.
