ROCKVILLE NEW YEAR'S EVE IN ROCKVILLE 2012

ONLY THE BEST!
NO LAUNDRY LIST HERE!

You've only got 1 night to get it right in the Rock City!  So don't take chances on any old New Year's Eve bash.

Bar Louie - Bar Louie will have an open bar, even while keeping tickets at a relatively reasonable $75.  A DJ to spin the evening's soundtrack, and a Champagne toast at Midnight round out the package.  But wait - there's another nice touch: a hearty breakfast buffet from 12:30 - 2:00 AM.  This is likely the best spot in Rockville for the young-and-single crowd on New Year's Eve. Call 240-238-1080 for tickets, or stop by Bar Louie in person.
