Edition of one

New Year's Eve
in the Garden

Two acres of living garden, closed to the public and handed to a single host for a single night. It has never been done here. There is nowhere else it can be done.

A private buyout — Thursday, December 31, 2026 — Palm Beach County

Why this one

You cannot build this room.

A ballroom is a product. It can be replicated, and in this county it has been, and your guests have already been in all of them.

What is here cannot be ordered. A resort can install a chandelier in a week and a marble floor in a month. No one can install a forty-foot palm canopy — it has to have been planted, decades ago, by someone who was not thinking about a party. No one can fabricate a glasshouse that smells like a glasshouse, or two acres of living inventory that has to be grown rather than delivered on a truck.

That is the entire proposition. There is exactly one way for a person to stand under this canopy on New Year's Eve, and it is to be one of your two hundred.

One night

December 31, 2026. The property is held for a single host and will not be divided between two.

One host

No shared space, no second event, no public access. The gates close to everyone who is not on your list.

One time

The first private buyout in the property's history, and the only New Year's Eve it will be offered for.

One figure

$195,000 for two hundred guests, venue included. $135,000 for one hundred. Nothing assembled line by line in November.

The transformation

A working nursery until the thirtieth.

Two acres a mile from the Intracoastal and ten minutes from downtown West Palm Beach. Production stops, retail closes, and the whole property is turned over.

By day

Irrigation lines, potting benches, forklifts moving stock. Mature palms and specimen trees standing in the ground where they have been for years. Gravel, shade cloth, and the smell of wet soil. A place that grows things, open to anyone who walks in.

By night, the thirty-first

Cleared, floored, tented and climate controlled under clear span. Every palm and glasshouse uplit from below. Twenty rounds of ten, a full bar built into the aisles, a stage, a dance floor, and two hundred people standing somewhere no one has stood at night.

— Nobody in the room will have been to this party before, because there has never been one.

Renderings

The night, drawn.

Renderings of the property as it will be set on the thirty-first.

Guests arriving by car at dusk under uplit palms, a peaked tent and string lights beyond Rendering 01 The approach at dusk. Clear-span tent over the main yard, specimen palms uplit through the canopy, string light runs at two heights, glasshouse glowing at the property line.
Guests with drinks along a gravel aisle under a canopy of pendant lanterns and string lights Rendering 02 Bar and lounge. Full bar built into the retail aisle, standing clusters among the living inventory, the dance floor visible through the tent wall.
A draped corridor lined with lit palms and lanterns opening onto the tent Rendering 03 Arrival. A draped corridor lined with palms and lanterns, opening onto the garden and the tent.
A lantern-lined gravel path between palms leading into a draped tent set for dinner Rendering 04 Dinner service. Twenty rounds of ten under clear top, low arrangements grown on site, tent walls open to the shade houses and the palms beyond.

The plan

Sixty by one hundred.

Six thousand square feet of clear-span tent covers seated dinner for two hundred at thirty square feet a guest, with stage and dance floor inside the same structure. Cocktail hour, bar and lounge run through the glasshouse and the retail aisles. At one hundred guests the tent and the table count come down; everything else on this plan stays where it is.

Run of show

Eight until one.

A starting shape for the evening. The host sets the final sequence.

8:00 ArrivalValet at the gate, then a lit path through the palms into the glasshouse. Passed canapés, first pour, the tent standing closed and visible until nine.
9:00 Seated dinnerThe tent opens. Twenty rounds of ten under clear span, coursed service, full bar running throughout.
10:30 The floor opensTables turned to dessert and coffee, band or DJ up, dance floor and garden lounge running in parallel.
12:00 MidnightChampagne to all two hundred. Tent walls open, countdown under the palms and open sky.
1:00 CloseLate bite, last call, cars staged and waiting.

On the number

December 31 is the hardest night of the year to buy.

The figure is what it is because of the date, not the address.

Every caterer, rental house, valet company, security firm and service captain in South Florida works holiday rates on New Year's Eve, and the ones worth hiring are committed by early fall. Tenting crews book out first. Staffing is the binding constraint, not the food. A package assembled in November costs more than this one and delivers less of it.

The figure below is one number, already built from bids in hand, with the venue inside it. The value in taking this now is not a discount. It is certainty on the one date of the year where certainty is hardest to buy, at a property that has never been available and is not being offered twice.

The package

Two hundred, or one hundred.

One figure, venue included. Both tiers take the same property, the same transformation and the same standard of service. The only variable is the size of the room.

Two hundred guests

$195,000 $975 per guest — all inclusions below

The full property at full scale. Twenty rounds of ten under clear span, stage, dance floor and bar built into the aisles, with the venue fee inside the number rather than beside it.

One hundred guests

$135,000 $1,350 per guest — all inclusions below

The same night at half the list. Tenting, production, planning, staffing and security do not halve when the guest count does, which is why the per-guest figure rises as the room gets smaller.

Included at both tiers

  • Exclusive use of the property — venue fee included
  • Catering and seated dinner service
  • Premium bar
  • Rentals — tables, seating, linen, glass, china, flatware
  • Tenting, flooring and climate
  • Event planning and production management
  • Service staffing
  • Security

Quoted separately

Additional production enhancements — additional décor, floral, specific entertainment and anything else the host wants built on top of the evening above.

These move entirely with the host's taste, so they are priced once the direction is set rather than guessed into the figures above.

Who takes it

One host, one night.

A company

A client or partner evening that has outgrown the ballroom circuit. Two hundred people, a setting none of them can name, and the event every other event gets compared to for the rest of the year.

A foundation

A New Year's Eve gala with production underwritten by sponsors. The venue does the differentiation a hotel cannot, the table price follows the rarity, and every frame of it photographs.

A private host

A milestone at wedding scale with a planner already engaged, a vendor package finished and bid, and a room that no one else in their circle will ever be able to book.

Next

Walk the property.

The site is the pitch. Thirty minutes on the gravel, standing where the tent goes, under the palms that will be over the tables, tells you what no rendering will. December 31 is held for one host and released to the first who takes it.
