Three ways to see in the New Year at Hotel Nova Riviera in Ohrid: the gala on 31 December, the encore on 1 January, and a package that puts both evenings together with three nights at the hotel. Here is what each one includes, so you can pick the one that suits you.
31 December 2026 — New Year's Eve with Grupa Maestro
The main evening. A full New Year's menu, a buffet and unlimited drinks, with Grupa Maestro playing live into the early hours.
Doors open at 20:00 and the programme starts at 20:30. When you buy your tickets you name the party you are coming with, and the hotel arranges the tables around it — so you see the New Year in with the people you came with.

1 January 2027 — New Year's Encore
The celebration carries on. A festive dinner with a full menu, a buffet and unlimited drinks, and Grupa Maestro live again.
The same arrangement as the night before: doors at 20:00, programme at 20:30, tables arranged around the party you name.

The package — 31 December to 3 January, both galas included
If you want both evenings and somewhere to sleep afterwards, this is the simplest way to do it. Fixed dates, three nights, and one price that covers:
- three nights at the hotel
- breakfast every morning
- free use of the spa centre
- entry to the gala dinner on 31 December
- entry to the festive dinner on 1 January
Tickets for both evenings are already included — there is nothing to buy separately. Grupa Maestro plays live on both nights, and the tables are arranged around the party you come with.
One thing worth knowing: the package exists only for 31 December 2026 to 3 January 2027. Search for other dates and it will not appear, and the dinners are then paid for separately.

Which one to choose
Coming for one night and going home afterwards — book tickets for 31 December. Staying in Ohrid over the holidays and want both evenings — the package is the better value, because the tickets are already in the price. Want only the quieter second night — tickets for 1 January.
Places are limited for all three. If you already know which evening you want, it is worth securing it early.
