The highlight of the year is set to fall on New Year's Eve, when the Palace will be decorated to represent The Golden Twenties, evoking the era of jazz, prosperity and flappers - think strings of pearls, feather boas, bobs and stars such as Marlene Dietrich and Josephine Baker. Guests travel back in time to enjoy a four course gala dinner in Badrutt's Palace Hotel $1,266 US (CH 1,200) or $528 US (CH 500) for houseguests. Alternatively there is a five-course dinner at $475 US (CH 450) in Chesa Veglia, the hotel's own cozy farmhouse dating back to 1658. At the stroke of midnight the party moves to Le Grand Hall and King?s Club where entry is inclusive for gala guests, from $338 US (CH 320) for Chesa Veglia guests and $633 US (CH 600) for after dinner guests. Youngsters have their own New Year?s Eve party in Kids' Club Palazzino with a fun, child-friendly evening without their parents, entry $211 US (CH 200) per child.
