In an ongoing effort to offer Atlantans “A Different World, Close to Home,” Lanier Islands endeavors to go above and beyond to deliver a stellar guest experience. That is certainly the case where this year’s New Year’s Eve celebration is concerned – or, more precisely… where this year’s New Year’s Eve celebrations are concerned. The lakeside resort will host not just one but TWO parties to ring in the New Year. One represents a family-friendly gathering at the resort’s year-round indoor entertainment destination – Game Changer. The other signifies a more traditional, adults-only celebration in the Grand Ballroom at Legacy Lodge. Both embody a unique way to welcome 2024 on the shores of Georgia’s Lake Lanier.

“For couples and families seeking a memorable way to flip the calendar page from 2023 to 2024, we invite them to ring in the New Year at Lanier Islands,” said Matthew Bowling, Vice President of Islands Management Company. “Both parties will showcase a special blend of great entertainment, great service, and great food for which our resort has become so well-known. And we’ve designed some imaginative accommodation packages that make it easy to keep the focus on fun while avoiding the roads and staying safe. Not to mention that there’s even more fun to be found on New Year’s Day at Margaritaville’s License to Chill Snow Island or Game Changer. It’s a wonderful way to start 2024 on a positive note.”
