If spending time at home this holiday season is what you are in search of, we have you covered! Whether you’re hosting friends for drinks and appetizers or curling up on the couch in your favorite PJs, there’s no better way to say hello to 2025 than with a glass of sparkling wine from Lodi. With delicious options across our AVA, it isn’t hard to get your hands on a premium bottle to welcome the New Year or to enjoy at brunch the following day.

Be sure to visit LVVR Sparkling Cellars for a bottle of bubbly to take home, as they are Lodi’s sparkling-only tasting room.

Where to Stay

Nothing dampens a party more than having to drive out of town after midnight. Luckily, Lodi is home to a selection of lodging options that can fit any traveler’s needs. Out-of-towners can enjoy the New Year’s Eve festivities without missing out on fun when staying in town. Options such as Wine & Roses Hotel offer New Year’s Eve festivities on their property, while familiar stays such as Fairfield Inn & Suites or Lodi’s newly opened Tru by Hilton are only a short drive or ride-share away! If being with family and keeping cozy is more your style, be sure to look for vacation home rentals, which are great for small gatherings to ring in the new year, with many centrally located near Downtown Lodi.
