You can have the most fun life. It’s not as hard as you might think. To enjoy an extraordinary time in this world, it’s largely a matter of who’s around you, what you have, and where you are. Naturally, the best move on your part, if those things have lined up well, is to throw a party—any kind of party, from cocktail hour to wedding.

Alas, seeking out the perfect spot to host the best day/night ever can be a challenge. But that’s where we come in. Truly, we at the Venue Report think that finding a new place to celebrate all that existence has to offer is one of the most exciting things anyone can do. So to keep the good times rolling, we compiled a super-list of sorts, laying out the greatest venue openings of last year and the most exciting ones set for this year. We hope you peruse, explore, and, most of all, have fun!  Want more? 2019's Hottest New Openings Across the Globe is now live →

    In 2016, this multifunction venue, quiet space, and tropical garden reopened in the heart of the city. It features a 135-square-metre doored dome that's bathed in natural light, with the interior being a spectacular pillarless space of high ceilings and classic artworks. Although each part of it looks stunningly new, much of it is actually a stylish relic of a golden age. In fact, President Soekarno held many state dinners here in the 1960s.

      It may be a contemporary urban loft in the South, but it feels like an Italian villa. That may have something to do with the large marble entry, arched French doorways, and plantation shutters. Opened in 2016, this 9,000-square-foot venue is a class act all the way, with ballrooms, crystal chandeliers, and cherry wood floors. Be on the lookout for Gatsby!

      It was a legitimate challenge to find a more unique new spot in 2016. No, really. This all-encompassing entertainment space features a wall of 19th Century doors reclaimed from a convent, along with stained glass windows and a massive writhing tree sculpture. It's a warm and wild “homage to vaudevillian eccentricity and Victorian decadence.” When it's not being rented out, it's a techno, live indie music, and nightlife venue.
