This New Year's Eve in San Diego, your first resolution will be to ring in the new year with a bang. And take our word for it, there will be no event more bangin' than the Keating Hotel's Red Party hosted in the sexy and sophisticated Minus 1 Ultra Lounge. If you're looking for the premier party of the year, color your New Year's Eve Red. The theme of the night is Midnight Passion ... can you handle it?

The Minus 1 Ultra Lounge is your subterranean escape from the over-hyped, over-crowded New Year's Eve parties that infiltrate Downtown San Diego on this most important of nights. Here in the ultra lounge of the Keating Hotel you can cut loose with a select crowd of San Diego's up-and-coming young professionals.

The atmosphere of the lounge is ultra-modern meets classic Italian charm; modern furniture is set against exposed brick walls bathed in red lighting effects. The lounge and hotel are the brainchild of the same design team that brought the world the Ferrari. Their lounge is the perfect place for those who crave to ring in the New Year with luxury and class.

At the Red Party, guests can indulge in an open bar all night long, as well as gourmet appetizers circulating throughout the night. Celebrate with the rest of the world by partaking in three champagne toasts to commemorate the New Year in three different time zones: Europe, New York, and of course, San Diego.

Win fabulous prizes in the silent auction and raffle, including downtown dinners at top San Diego restaurants and posh cruises. Everyone is a winner with the Red Party gift bag- filled to the brim with alcohol, beauty products for men and women, a pair of Keating Hotel slippers, and much, much more. The Red Party's top-notch sponsors will also be giving away top loot fast and furious. Select bags will have extra surprises in store from bottle service gift certificates to free upgrades to Keating Hotel robes.

The Keating party is dedicated to provide guests with a unique party atmosphere. You won't get lost in the crowd at Red, as the guest list has been limited to a smaller crowd of 275 lucky attendees - don't expect to wait in line or for a drink at this VIP scene.

"Our staff will give you the personal attention you need for a memorable event," promises Kelly Clark, events and marketing manager of the Keating.

Wear your best cocktail attire and come ready to dance: the Minus 1 Lounge has lined-up three top DJ's who won't stop until 4am.

Tickets for the event are on sale now for $200 each, but after December 16, 2007 prices will jump to $250 each. The Keating is also offering deluxe room packages, which include a glass of champagne at check-in, two tickets to the Red Party, and a discounted room rate.
