Sunday's Living It Up In San Francisco, This Week's Parade of Events to Nourish the Soul with New Years Eve!

Welcome to Incoming, from SFHotelstories. Your concierge weekly guide to the pulse of what's happening in San Francisco.

EVENTS

New Years Eve and Day!

There are no shortage of venues in San Francisco with festivities planned of New Year's Eve, so here are a few ideas.

As is the tradition, fireworks will go off at midnight over the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, but here are a few ideas of what to do before then, and the next day.

The Union Square Ice Rink will be open on both December 31st. And January First.

The Balboa Theater is hosting a showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show on New Year's Eve.

Once again, for 20 years, MOANY (Mother Of All New Years)  has been The Regency Ballroom's New Year's Eve tradition.  Three different floors offer many dance options, playing a variety of genres.

Voted the best dive bar in San Francisco (although I've seen worse), the Riptide Bar hosts the New Year’s Day Plunge at Ocean Beach.   Beginning at 12:00pm on January 1st, join your fellow Crazies, at Ocean Beach and Taraval Street, for a dip in the cold Pacific Ocean to cleanse yourself of the previous year.
