I was in PS for this NYE and enjoyed it, although it was a bit low-key due to heavy rain on the evening itself.

We considered four main options (although I'm sure there are more):
- Dinner - most restos offer a special menu over midnight. There are also special menus earlier in the evening as most restos do two fixed sittings
- Block party - organised by one of the casinos. Village People were playing but we weren't sure to what extent it would be very gay as opposed to "look at the gays". Ultimately the weather killed this option (although the party did go ahead)
- Strippers Circus - big dance party in semi-derelict restaurant on the edge of town. We only heard about this when we got into town so the cheap tickets had gone and on-the-door tickets were $80. The gogos were hot, but the venue was not, and they were struggling with a leaky roof in several areas. This wasn't for us.
- Regular bar - Hunters had no cover and we got there at 11pm. The music was cheap, the drinks were cheap, the crowd was... well, cheap and we had a lot of fun.
