Where to celebrate New Year's Eve in Moscow?

I'm a foreigner, where can I celebrate this holiday?

Depends on your budget and vibe. For a luxurious experience, look into some of the high-end hotels; many have special New Year's Eve galas. If you're after something more lively and less formal, check out the events happening around Red Square – it'll be crowded, but the atmosphere is electric. Smaller, more intimate celebrations might be found in some of the themed bars and restaurants in areas like Patriarshy Ponds or Tverskaya Street. Do a bit of online searching for "Moscow New Year's Eve events" closer to the date – things get announced fairly last-minute sometimes.

That's great advice, thanks! I hadn't considered the hotel galas – that sounds pretty swanky. Red Square definitely appeals to the spectacle-lover in me, but I'm also a bit worried about the sheer scale of it all. Patriarshy Ponds sounds like a good compromise – somewhere a bit more low-key but still with a festive feel. I'll definitely start doing some digging online closer to the time.

Check out Meetup.com; they usually have groups for that sort of thing. Failing that, try searching VK (ВКонтакте) – that's where a lot of Russian communities hang out. Good luck finding your fellow weebs/gamers!
