With fireworks or without, by boat or on land, Branson will offer a variety of ways at a variety of prices to celebrate New Years Eve and usher in the New Year. From the all inclusive evening celebrations at the Chateau on the Lake or the Branson Convention Center to a quiet dinner for two at one of Branson’s fine restaurants, or from a boat floating serenely on one of Branson’s lakes to a theatre seat watching one of Branson’s excellent shows, there is something for just about every taste and budget. The choices that visitors to Branson will have, include, but are certainly not limited to the following:
Chateau on the Lake Resort, Spa and Convention Center
December 31, 2007
Time: 7:00 p.m.
One of the Midwest’s largest New Year’s Eve celebrations and featuring a colossal fireworks display over Table Rock Lake to culminate an evening of fine gourmet dining, live music and champagne toasts. The New Year’s Eve celebration starts in the Chateau’s 32,000-square foot Great Hall with a festive hors d’oeuvres reception and cash bar at 7:00 p.m., followed by a plated dinner of Filet Mignon and fresh Atlantic Shrimp, and topped off with one of the Chateau’s signature hand-made specialty desserts, all presented by Executive Chef Anthony J. Burke, CEC and his team of culinary experts.
At 9:00 p.m., the popular Gary Myer’s Band will take the stage in the Great Hall and rock the night away with dance favorites from the 70s and 80s, with a little R & B added to the mix. To signal to guests in the Great Hall that it’s time to bid adieu to 2007, the party hats and horns, champagne and a giant balloon droop will roll out just before midnight.
In keeping with the Chateau’s signature grand style, the resort will present a spectacular fireworks display just after midnight for hotel guests and thousands of spectators whose tradition is to watch from boats on Table Rock Lake, or at one of the popular viewing locations along Highways 165 and 265.
