Description

Take a tipsy journey through the spirit trails and exclusive entry through barricades as you retrace the immigrant progress toward the American Dream during Prohibition. We begin in one of New York's modern speakeasies while making introductions and enjoying a cocktail. At the second location, explore the catalysts behind Prohibition, focus on the women of the Gilded Age and the movement that gave rise to an oil king while eating and drinking. To round off the journey, be guided into one of New York's last-standing 1920s speakeasies and hear the tale of the period’s most notorious gangsters, infamous bootleggers and discuss the sudden demise of prohibition. At this final stop, we have an open bar from 7:30 PM to 12:00 AM and an exclusive view of the ball drop from 12 blocks away.
