The largest flow of tourists comes to Moscow and St. Petersburg, let's see where to celebrate New Year 2018 in St. Petersburg? What interesting things do the organizers of New Year's holidays in the northern capital offer?

Holiday on the streets of the city

Of course, having arrived in Big City, tourists first of all want to see all its attractions, but St. Petersburg - unusual city, he himself is one big attraction, everything is imbued with luxury and grace. Therefore, you can celebrate the New Year in the northern capital almost everywhere. Of course, traditionally the main city festivities will take place on Nevskaya Prospekt and the incredible Palace Square, already here tourists are imbued with the graceful beauty of the city.

You don’t have much time, you want to meet New Year’s Eve and get to know the city better, then it is for such guests that unusual New Year’s excursions are organized every year. Bus tour St. Petersburg on December 31, at midnight, the bus arrives at Palace Square so that tourists, together with the townspeople, can greet the chimes, and then continue their incredible journey through the sights of the city. On this excursion, guests of St. Petersburg will hear a lot of new and interesting things about the city; during the trip, adults will be treated to a glass of champagne, and children will be treated to sweets.

There are plenty of adrenaline junkies waiting for you ice slides and skating rinks, you can inexpensively and noisily celebrate the New Year holidays together; such entertainment is perfect for tourists with children.

If you like solitude, or are simply ready to spend money when celebrating the New Year, then you can purchase a ticket to a good boarding house or recreation center in the suburbs of St. Petersburg.

NG in a boarding house

If you have not yet decided where to celebrate the New Year in St. Petersburg, then we suggest you go away from the bustle of the city and noisy New Year's parties. In the suburbs northern capital located a large number of various boarding houses and sanatoriums that organize special festive events on New Year's holidays.

Of course, to celebrate holidays in holiday homes, you will have to fork out a fair amount; the cost of a day in a good boarding house will vary from 4,000 to 7,000 rubles; most likely, the price will not include New Year’s dinner, which will have to be paid separately.

By the way, if you want to spend New Year’s Eve cheaper, you can rent a small house, without meals, of course, and serve the festive table yourself; the cost of such a house is approximately 3000-4000 rubles per day. Billiards, a swimming pool, a sauna and a gym are often at guests' disposal. Therefore, New Year's Eve will be held at a high level. The most common geographical places Repino and Red Lake are recognized for a good holiday in St. Petersburg.

The first is cottage village, each house is designed for 6-7 vacationers. For a 4-day stay you will have to fork out 21.5 thousand rubles for the whole company, excluding food and organizing a New Year's dinner; in principle, this is not that expensive. Holidays on Red Lake will be even cheaper. It is worth noting that celebrating the New Year in the suburbs is very popular among Russians, so almost all places in boarding houses for 2018 have already been reserved.

For a holiday together with your child, another entertainment is perfect - celebrating New Year's Eve in a historical setting; a real masquerade ball in the traditions of the 19th century is organized for guests; the organizers offer fun from past centuries: sleigh rides, snowball fights. The children are greeted by Father Frost and the Snow Maiden; the little one will especially enjoy being in a real New Year's fairy tale.

The guides look like the emperor's maids of honor, guests are also invited to dress in historical outfits, it would be nice to learn in advance some dance performed at the balls of the century before last.

To organize a meeting of the New Year in the best historical traditions, the Kochubey Palace is usually used; the celebration lasts up to 3 days. If we talk about price, the cost of a 3-day stay in standard rooms with meals, New Year's dinner, ball and other attributes will cost about $200 per person, for an additional fee you can rent a luxurious luxury room, whether to overpay for it or not depends only on the size of a tourist's wallet.

By the way, you can celebrate the New Year in the palace without accommodation, which will be much cheaper; you can celebrate the holiday and then go home or to another hotel. This is the only negative: delivery of the client to his home is not included in the services; at 5 am, guests who do not live in the palace will have to find transport on their own, which can be problematic on January 1st.

Alcohol parties

So, how much will a New Year’s alcohol trip cost, and where is the best place to go with a group? If we talk about New Year's Eve in a cafe or club, then traditionally the price includes some alcohol (you will have to buy more in the midst of New Year's Eve, which is not cheap), an appetizer, main course and dessert. By the most conservative standards, a menu with a glass of New Year's champagne will cost 3000-4000 per person. The rest of the “fun” is offered for an additional fee.

If you dream of going to a themed party, then it will cost an order of magnitude more; the cost of a New Year's table starts from 5,000-6,000 rubles. For 2018, the best St. Petersburg clubs will present Mexican, Soviet, rock and roll and many other themes. Or maybe you want to attend a real witches’ Sabbath, then you will have to fork out up to 10,000 rubles per person, plus an additional fee for alcohol, the price of which almost doubles.

By the way, a recent New Year's fun for young people: a real alcohol tour. For 3000-4000 rubles per person, you will be taken to 5-10 of the most famous bars in St. Petersburg, where you can drink heavily and dance.
