When should we arrive?
Pre-night opens at 7pm, dinner starts around 8pm. If you take the dinner formula, plan to arrive at 7:30pm. If you come just for the night, after 10pm works too — but booking essential.
Les Folies d'Edmonde
New Year's Eve in Nice
31 December in Nice in a 17th-century cellar: signature cocktails, partner dinner, DJ until late, midnight countdown. 50 guests max.
FAQ — NYE at Les Folies
Is there a dinner on site?
We're a cocktail bar, not a restaurant. But our partner restaurants (OKA Nice, Fish Bar 2.0, Etna Rosso) deliver dinner directly into the cellar. You pick the formula and restaurant at booking.
Is there a dress code?
No mandatory dress code, but elegance is warmly encouraged — it's 31 December. Cocktail-chic or evening wear work great. Many come in suits or black dresses.
How much does it cost?
Several formulas: simple table (bar consumption), dinner + cocktails formula (quote based on chosen partner restaurant), privatisation (tailored quote). Midnight champagne included in every formula. Detailed quote within 24 weekday hours.
How far in advance to book?
31 December books up early — we open bookings in October, and the cellar is usually full by mid-November. Book as soon as the program is announced to secure your spot.
Can we bring a gift / cake?
Of course. For a birthday on 31 December, we keep the cake chilled and bring it out at the countdown. For special requests (surprise gift, DJ dedication), let us know in advance.
