Every Friday and Saturday evening, guests can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of Rotterdam, accompanied by a DJ.<\/p>\n<p>After Celest had to close its doors in the summer due to water damage, it is now reopening in phases. Initially, it was only open for corporate and private events, but now the next phase is beginning. The <a href=\"https:\/\/celest.nl\/en\/events\/nye-party\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NYE party<\/a> marks the festive reopening of the Skybar for individual reservations. The doors will open at 10 p.m. on 31 December, followed by a spectacular fireworks display at midnight. The party will be fueled by the danceable beats of a DJ, supported by a saxophonist. There is no specific dress code, but a festive outfit is always fun. Tickets for the NYE party cost \u20ac 249. A selection of drinks and cocktails is included, as well as surprising bites. Think loaded truffle fries, lobster rolls, boa short ribs and no foie brioches. Of course, at midnight, the champagne corks will pop to ring in the new year and accompany the National Fireworks. The party ends at 2 a.m.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_91119\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-91119\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-91119\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1-300x182.jpg\" alt=\"From January 2nd, Celest's sky bar will be open on Friday and Saturday evenings. \" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1-600x363.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1-270x164.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1-373x226.jpg 373w, https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Horecatrends-afmetingen-23-1.jpg 710w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-91119\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From January 2nd, Celest&#8217;s sky bar will be open on Friday and Saturday evenings.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The sky bar offers visitors a night out with tasty bites, an extensive range of drinks and surprising cocktails, all at Rotterdam&#8217;s highest point.
