Plant Riverside District, known as Savannah’s Entertainment District, will host the city’s most exclusive New Year’s Eve celebration, featuring a four-course gourmet dinner curated by Savannah’s top-rated culinary team led by Executive Chef Kyle Lipetzky with special Veuve Clicquot collection pairings. Guests can enjoy rare selections from the Veuve Clicquot collection, including a special Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Champagne toast at midnight.

This exclusive event will be hosted by The Kessler Collection’s Chairman and CEO Richard C. Kessler and will feature a lavish welcome reception, ultra-premium open bar, exquisite passed hors d’oeuvres and stations, a private terrace to view a dazzling fireworks display over the Savannah River, special party favors and more. Menu highlights include Hawaiian Yellowfin Tuna with King Crab and Ossetra Caviar, Jurgielewicz Farms Duck with Okinawan sweet potato and Allen Brothers Dry Aged Beef Tenderloin with caramelized leeks and trumpet mushrooms.

Poseidon’s New Year’s Eve Gala will also feature an intimate live performance by internationally acclaimed concert pianist and composer Alexander Peskanov, who has been described by The Washington Post as a “brilliant pianist [who] can create incredible excitement and knows how to please a crowd.” In addition, the 10-piece Daniel LeClaire Band will provide a big band-inspired sound that’s ideal for dancing the night away and ringing in the New Year. LeClaire has been featured on The Book of Mormon national tour and has shared the stage with performers ranging from Betty White and Wayne Newton to Nick Jonas and Amy Poehler.

Named after the Greek god of the sea, Poseidon’s New Year’s Eve Gala offers the ultimate NYE experience at Plant Riverside District. A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit The Treutlen House and New Ebenezer Retreat Center in Rincon, Ga. Valet parking is included for attendees. Special JW Marriott Savannah Plant Riverside District room rates are available.
