If you can't over-indulge in fashion, food, and fun on New Year's Eve, when can you? W Austin can help you live like a royal for the night with its decadent Let Them Eat Cake party, a lavish celebration of all things glam.

There are several ticket tiers to help you get in on all the extravagant action:

New Year's Revolution, general admission: This pass grants you access to the lower-level areas of the hotel only, which includes Tequila Bar, Record Room, and Secret Bar. Revolt in style with top Austin DJs spinning and burlesque entertainers ringing in the New Year.

Long Live the Party, general admission: You ticket to the second floor, with food provided throughout the evening and five SIP tickets per person for use at the bars on the second level only. There will be DJs set up in the Great Rooms, with Impressionist painted figures coming to life for photo opportunities, styling stations for a perfect powdered updo, and swinging sirens setting the scene for decadence. A midnight countdown will be cued up by a styled waltz and appearance by Marie Antoinette herself.

Long Live the Party, VIP: Get everything from general admission plus all-over access to the second floor, including the VIP areas with private lounge seating and upgraded bar options. Extra perks include early access to some of activation rooms in Social 1-3, which will open at various times throughout the night.

Royal Elite: Have the run of the hotel, mingling between the lower level and second floor, and enjoy all the VIP perks from above. These tickets are the most limited and tend to sell out first and fastest, so buy early to ensure your place at the queen's side.

No matter which ticket you buy, come dressed to impress in a gorgeous gown or chic cocktail couture. Austin Oddities and Ron King Salon will be on hand to ensure your style is as grand as Louis XVI.

Make a night of it by booking W Austin's special New Year's Eve hotel deal. It includes access for two to the Let Them Eat Cake celebration, early access to the Great Room party, free parking and Wi-Fi, and a sleek guest room in which to sleep off the debauchery.

You must book your stay at least 10 days ahead or by December 22, 2019, to unlock this limited-time offer. Use promotional code EVE when booking online, or call 1-800-228-9290 in the U.S. and ask for promotional code EVE. 

However you chose to celebrate New Year's Eve this year, W Austin is ready to turn things into a spectacle with elaborate thrills certain to impress the Queen herself.
