Sylwester - New Year's Eve Party

New Year's Eve is traditionally one of the biggest nights of the year in Zakopane, as it is across Poland. The whole town will be buzzing today, and this being Polska, you can expect the toasts to begin well before dusk falls. If you're dining out in town, try and reserve your table well in advance. Many restaurants will be hosting specially-themed banquets, and competition for tables will be fierce. The revelry will continue well into the white hours, with nightclubs such as Ampstrong hosting packed out parties. Of course, even if the temperatures are pushing -30, expect the Highlanders to come out in force. Antarctic temperatures are nothing for the locals - they'll be celebrating on the streets even if they're knee deep in snow and hordes of yetis come bowling into town. Around midnight fireworks will illuminate the night sky. Enjoy!
