Set on Aquidneck Island, Newport is a tourist town with no shortage of things to do on New Year's Eve.

Glitzy parties and dinners are held at almost every restaurant and bar in the town, and lucky visitors will also be able to get tickets to a live music performance, an improv comedy show, or one of the many other special events held on the last night of the year.

If your budget permits it, you can even attend a luxurious yacht party and spend the evening cruising around Newport while drinking champagne and enjoying gourmet cuisine.
