Ring in the New Year, Roaring ‘20s Style!
All aboard the NYE night train! Come formally dressed in your best for one of Southern California’s premier New Year’s Eve parties! Back for its ninth year, Prohibition NYE embodies the glamorous spirit of the Roaring ‘20s with a modern twist. Located at the architecturally stunning Union Station in Los Angeles—and envisioned by producers McCullough and Ross—Prohibition NYE isn’t just a party, it’s a metamorphic affair with live music, burlesque, premium open bars and so much more to transport you back in time. “This is the best lineup of artists and performers in the event’s history. We’re excited and ready to ring in the new year,” says John McCullough. Read on for seven reasons why you need to be at one of the country’s ultimate NYE parties of the year!
DJs and Dancing
Dance the night away to live musical performances from world-renowned DJs and artists! Headlining the evening is Los Angeles-based, alternative pop music duo, Neil Frances. Groove to their amazing live DJ hits such as “Dumb Love” and “Music Sounds Better with You.” Closing out the night is 2022 Grammy-nominated artist Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. Currently on a sold-out live tour, the British electronic music producer, DJ and singer-songwriter will perform exclusive music from his new album, “When The Lights Go,” as well as fan favorites. And to kick off the night, KCRW producer and On-Air DJ, Tyler Boudreaux will spinning crowd favorites. This NYE lineup is a rare treat worth seeing!
Celebrate With the Ball Drop
Signifying the passage of time, the ball drop is a long-standing tradition of transition. Ring in the new year and watch the 60-foot ball drop from the enchanting Mission Revival and Spanish Colonial architecture and Art Deco ceilings of Union Station. A fresh start, maybe a kiss and a feeling of revitalization needed by many—what better way to symbolize that than with an NYE ball drop? “We’re hoping Prohibition NYE brings a sense of normalcy back to our lives,” says McCullough. “We are really looking forward to toasting the great year ahead.”
Burlesque? Oh, Yes!
If you’re looking to take a dance break, channel your inner Gatsby and feast your eyes upon captivating performances from the acclaimed burlesque troupe, Concrete Entertainment. An incredible art form, burlesque is often seen as an ethos of the Roaring ‘20s. Tantalize your senses and time travel with their out-of-this-world entertainment and delight in show-stopping dance routines, visually breathtaking costumery and non-stop theater fun. You don’t want to miss these lavish and elegantly enticing performances!

While general admission tickets are $195, you can upgrade your evening to another level with a one-of-a-kind VIP experience. Bypass the line with a private entrance to the venue and be treated to personal, top-notch table service (four guests or custom groups) all night long.
