The glamour will be guaranteed by singer diva Lucy Márkus and her show band. The charming performing artist is one of the resident singers in the Aria who is at her best singing jazzy covers of contemporary and evergreen hit songs. She is accompanied by a three-member combo this evening, and inevitably our magical Bogányi designer grand piano is to be played. The show presents the most popular hits of the current and recent years in easy-listening covers that will invite you to the dance floor.
On the rooftop, in our magnificent High Note SkyBar, our house DJ and singer, Myra Monoka is taking place behind the turn tables, waiting for your song wish list from 10:00 pm. Her live act is a frequent feature of our SkyBar program and will make your feet move. The party is going to rock and roll from the Old to the New Year, until midnight climaxing with your glass of champagne – and will not stop until dawn.
