Ring in the new year, Byron style
Celebrate the end of the year in true Byron style, surrounded by nature
Pop. Fizz. Clink. Say goodbye to 2025 with a little sparkle and a lot of flavour.
See out the year the Forest way: chilled bubbles, cicadas humming, and a five-course throwback to our all-time favourite dishes.
A solo musician will soundtrack the evening from 6pm, setting an easy rhythm for good food, good wine and even better company.
We wind things up at 10pm. Ideal if you want to do an early toast and float back to your suite, or head off into Byron to chase midnight however you choose.
