(Full Disclosure: The information and photos are a compilation from official press releases of the hotels and establishments featured in this blog post. I wrote this blog post myself, and personally curated this list. We only blog about things that are awesome.)
P.S. There’s no New Year’s Eve Countdown in Makati City and Rockwell because they will donate the budget to the victims of Typhoon Yolanda.
P.P.S. In BGC (or the Fort), traditionally Taguig City does not have a NYE Countdown. The NYE’s parties are limited to the exclusive bars and clubs in the area.
P.P.P.S. ABS-CBN does not have its own countdown but it covers all the NYE’s countdown around Metro Manila.
we’ve checked in at seda hotel for the new year, i sure hope the bars/clubs in the area will have fireworks we can enjoy from outside since wala pala sa bgc 🙁
Thank you for including our countdown!!! ABSCBN and TV5 will be covering us and it is also available on live stream on the 31st 🙂
Awesome.. I will try to join this time.. Thanks for sharing New Year Party Info.
Looking forward to your NYE 2015 recommendations! 🙂
