3rd January 2024

On New Year’s Eve, The Pantiles hosted a spectacular New Year’s Eve celebration, ushering in 2024 with a night of unparalleled entertainment, delicious drinks and culinary delights.

Over 3,000 people attended the event, as The Pantiles was transformed into a haven of festivities, with an unforgettable experience for all.

A Diverse Range of Music

The extravaganza featured not one, but two entertainment stages, with a diverse range of musical performances to keep the energy high throughout the night. Renowned DJs and live performances from the talented Dave Ital and friends graced the stages, setting the perfect tone for a night of celebration.

Tantalising Taste Buds

As the clock ticked down to midnight, The Pantiles was buzzing with excitement. Guests raised a toast to the new year at the Champagne Bar, courtesy of Charlotte’s – it was the perfect place to savour the effervescence of the moment. For those seeking innovative and delicious cocktails, The Pantiles Café & Bar and the recently opened Lemons Bar were on hand to serve up signature drinks that tantalised taste buds.

To ward off chilly temperatures, Hatton’s offered a selection of winter warmers, including mulled wine, mulled cider and mulled apple juice, along with a hearty beef brisket chili. For those with a penchant for traditional flavours, German sausages and mouthwatering burgers from local favourite Roddy Burger were available.

Thirsty revellers found respite at The Tunbridge Wells Hotel and The Cake Shed, where a full bar was at their service. As the night reached its peak, a spectacular fireworks display launched at midnight illuminating the skies, creating a mesmerising backdrop to welcome the new year.
