If you’re planning on spending New Year’s Eve in Oxford, there are a number of places that will be offering special holiday opportunities.

Jason Ross, manager of Boure at 110 Courthouse Square in Oxford, said they will have the bar area of the restaurant decorated for New Year’s Eve, and they generally have a number of people there ringing in the new year.

“We will be closed on New Year’s Day,” he said.

The Burgundy Room at 1112 Van Buren Ave. in Oxford is the upstairs level of Old Venice Pizza and will be open for celebrations.

“They might be doing champagne at midnight,” said Hannah Vines, a waitress at Old Venice.

Catherine Scott, an employee of City Grocery at 152 Courthouse Square in Oxford, said the restaurant will offer a special dinner on New Year’s Eve. Patrons must make reservations.

“The dining room downstairs is doing a special dinner,” she said. “It’s a set menu diner with five courses and a wine pairing.”

Alex McCullough, a front desk employee with Graduate Hotel at 400 North Lamar Blvd., said the hotel is fully booked for New Year’s Eve, but the public can still come and celebrate the new year at one of the hotel’s two bars.

“It will be a happening place on New Year’s Eve,” McCullough said. “We have a lobby bar that opens at 2 p.m. and a rooftop bar that overlooks the whole town.”

The rooftop bar will open at 4 p.m.

“Anyone can come up and use any of the bars or our restaurant,” McCullough said.
