A Night In Copacabana; The 31st Night Dinner Dance Of Mount Lavinia Hotel.

Mount Lavinia Hotel (MLH) proudly presents the New Year’s Eve for 2023; “A Night in Copacabana” where Glamour meets Charm, on the 31st December 2023 at the world-famous Terrace of MLH from 7.30 PM onwards.

First dawn of 2024 will be welcomed in the rays of pink and shiny silvers underneath splashy fireworks at the Terrace of Mount Lavinia Hotel where you meet the Venus in the sky and the ocean. Patrons will be escorted to the premises with the sensual dancing of show girls to fabricate a kindred notion of a Gala at The Palace of Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro.

This years’ themed 31st Night is a solid yet an exclusive experience in Sri Lanka; born under the guidance of the MLH’s Chief Operating Officer Anura Dewapura. Since Dewapura shares an ample amount of knowledge and encounters of New Year’s Eve Celebrations around the world, A Night in Copacabana will be an exotic evening.

This year-end celebration of the hotel is plotted to deliver the authentic nature of a Brazilian Carnival Ball in Sri Lanka. From food and beverages to music to attire to decorations will be solely planned to make the guests feel the Copacabana atmosphere while Pink and Silver color combination will enhance the colonial charm while absorbing fabulousness to the night. Celebrations are planned to continue till dawn.

This Brazilian Night will ensure the real Gala atmosphere with scrumptious delicacies, hyped up melodies and rhythmic moves to the choice of your booze. Guests are requested in an attire of their choice and ease while the hotel will provide the party favours (masquerades) to make the theme alive while mingling themselves with it. Most importantly, every group of ten guests (a table of ten- prior to reservations), will be offered with free bottles of premium spirits Scotch, Rum and Vodka.

A welcome Cocktail hour in the courtyard is scheduled in the agenda from 7.30PM-8.30PM as to note the warmest greetings by the hotel, Gala Dinner and the Midnight Breakfast will be served at the Empire Ballroom while the seating arrangement and the live music performances will be conducted at the Terrace itself.

Grand Gala Dinner will be prepared and served by the MLH’s professionals throughout the event to deliver the best buffet experience for the guests.

“Freeze” is going to be the live music and dance moves composers of the night and in the meantime guests can dance the night away to the beats of DJ Delo and Jazz music. End of 2023 will be a night of dancing and entertainment. A dazzling hour of midnight Fireworks will be accompanied by the hotel to portray the beginning of the year 2024.

On that note Mount Lavinia Hotel will lavishly welcome the New Year with the hope of serving the Tourism and Hospitality industry of Sri Lanka by rejuvenating the heart desired Destination- Mount Lavinia Hotel.

Happy New Year in advance! – Team MLH
