ut nye bars

From Salt Lake City to Ogden, you’ll find a variety of Utah bars that will be hopping come New Year’s Eve. Round up your good friends, put on your best outfit, and get ready to party the night away. Reflect on this past year and ring in the new one with a bang at these awesome Utah bars.


Ice Haüs, Murray, UT

With the tagline, “Beers, brats, and brews,” Ice Haüs is basically a guarantee for a fun and delicious night. And even if you have vegetarians or vegans in the mix, the bar’s menu has myriad options for varying dietary needs. The beer is inexpensive, the entertainment is great, and the ambience feels quirky in the best German-style way. So if you didn’t get to celebrate Oktoberfest this year, a New Year’s Eve spent at Ice Haüs is a way to make up for that loss.

Funk’n Dive Bar, Ogden, UT

New Year’s Eve at a so-called “dive bar” sounds a bit anticlimactic, but Funk’n Dive Bar isn’t really a “dive bar.” It’s a fun bar with good drinks and an awesome location. You’ll be dancing and sipping drinks all night.

Downstairs, Park City, UT

So, you want to get your groove on this New Year’s Eve? You’re not alone. And if you’re in Park City, Downstairs is the hip place to go. There will be bigger parties in the area, but there will be music, drinks, and an intimate atmosphere downstairs. This year’s New Year’s Eve party (for ages 21 and over) will be hosted by DJ Scooter.

Prohibition, Murray, UT

Conveniently located in Murray’s Fashion Place shopping center, Prohibition is far from a dive bar. At Prohibition, the cocktails are artsy but not try-hard and the food is filling and memorable. It’s safe to say that a reservation at Prohibition on New Year’s Eve is a good idea. And if you have someone special you want to celebrate with, Prohibition is a romantic (but not pretentious) spot perfect for couples.

BTG Wine Bar, Salt Lake City, UT

Wine lovers, unite! BTG Wine Bar is your go-to spot in Salt Lake City, and New Year’s Eve is no exception. The upscale bar feels intrinsically romantic with a beautiful curved glass entry and a long wall of tempting wines that you can sample, sip, and share with a loved one.
