About to travel to the north of Spain after Christmas? There\u2019s no better plan than celebrating the new year in San Sebastian!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wondering where to eat dinner on New Year\u2019s Eve and where to head on New Year\u2019s Day? Whether your preference is loads of glitter and bubbly, or a cozy dinner with some amazing local food, there\u2019s something for everyone in San Sebastian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to plan your special night well in advance and step into 2020 with our recommendations for celebrating New Year’s in San Sebastian. <\/p>\n\n\n

\"Celebrating<\/figure>\n\n\n

New Year\u2019s Eve dinner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Good news: one of our favorite new places in San Sebastian, Rita<\/a>, keeps their doors open on New Year\u2019s Eve. At Rita, delicious Spanish and Basque flavors take on a modern touch, and their New Year\u2019s Eve\u2019s menu guarantees that your night will be a success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ending 2019 with some fine dining doesn\u2019t sound too bad either, right? And there\u2019s no better place for that than San Sebastian, a city full of famous chefs and Michelin-starred restaurants<\/a>. Eme Be Garrote<\/a> is one of our all-time favorites, and their nochevieja <\/em>menu was created by the legendary chef Martin Berasategui<\/a> <\/em>himself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel like dancing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Feel like dancing? So do we! There are plenty of great after-dinner plans on New Year\u2019s Eve in San Sebastian, such as Be Club<\/a> with its great cocktails, or classic nightclub Victoria Cafe<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of greatest events is the futuristic Cripta party at Convent Garden<\/a>. With four cocktails included in the ticket price and some other specialties, it is one of the best deals in town. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter where you end up, be sure to toast with your co-fiesteros<\/em> with a glass of cava\u2014or as a local option, try txakoli<\/em><\/a>, a slightly sparkling Basque white wine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relax on New Year\u2019s Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After a night of celebrations, a relaxing New Year\u2019s Day is well-deserved. We\u2019ll kick off 2020 in the best way we know: with great food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For traditional Basque food and never-failing quality, try Zumeltzegi<\/a>. On their menu, you\u2019ll find local specialties such as jam\u00f3n ib\u00e9rico<\/em>, spider crab and monkfish or the famous txuleta<\/em> (t-bone steak) if you\u2019re a meat lover.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prefer a classy dinner with a sea view? La Brasserie Mari Galant<\/a> at the Hotel de Londres won\u2019t let you down with its carefully planned menu. After dinner, the best way to digest all the food is to take a walk on the iconic La Concha Promenade<\/a> nearby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget the traditional grapes!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not only a legend\u2014eating 12 grapes at midnight on New Year\u2019s is an essential tradition for many Spaniards, and without it, the evening is not complete! So, if you want to take part of this somewhat comical but very local ritual, make sure to buy those uvas<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We should warn you, though, swallowing one grape with every stroke of the clock is not an easy task. Most locals have been practicing all their lives but still end up shoving their mouths (too) full of grapes. But if nothing else, you\u2019ll end up starting the year with a good laugh!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
