Will you be staying up until midnight to celebrate? Many cities go all out on New Year’s Eve to ring in the new year with glitz and glamor. New York City might be the most recognized place to celebrate, but the results of a recent study of the best places to spend the holiday in the U.S. might surprise you!
According to WalletHub, many businesses are notorious for hiking up their prices on New Year’s Eve, particularly hotels, which can experience several hundred percent price increases over the rest of the year.
Fortunately, they have compiled a list of the 100 biggest cities and ranked them based on 26 factors including the legality of fireworks, nightlife options per capita, affordability, and forecasted precipitation on December 31st.
