It’s the end of a decade! (Yes, we feel old too). In our experience, you either love New Year’s Eve or maybe you’d rather just stay home in your PJs. We’re here to help both of you! Our list of the ultimate Jersey Shore New Years Eve events has something for everyone no matter what your style.

Spend the evening getting cozy at a waterfront restaurant, listening to live music at your favorite watering hole, playing games with the family, or even sleeping in a bed you don’t have to make on the 1st. No matter how you’re looking to end your year, make sure you give 2019 (and this decade) it’s proper send off and 2020 a proper hello! Welcome to the roaring ’20s (well, the 2020s!)
