There’s no better way to ring in the new year than surrounded by people you cherish. Here are some stellar spots where you start 2025 off right with your nearest and dearest. Unleash your inner 007 – or, dare we suggest, Bond villain – at the Westin Southlake’s annual New Year’s Eve bash. This year’s theme is Casino Royale, and guests can expect a world of elegance and excitement as the space transforms into a playground of intrigue. Take your martini shaken, not stirred from the open bar while you vibe to captivating live music and casino games. Embrace the motto that Diamonds Are Forever as you dress to impress for an elegant evening of sophistication and cheer. Then, choose to Die Another Day as your toast to 2025.
