New Year’s Eve is one of those nights where the music, people and destinations are all equally hot. Palm Tree NYE was the most talked-about bash of the new year, drawing celebrity crowds of the highest caliber from across the globe.
Darren Dzienciol has several stakes in the hospitality industry. His history of parties, pop-ups and planning the next cutting-edge affairs distinguishes him as a true revolutionary. With his concepts integrated into internationally-broadcasted events like Coachella, the SuperBowl and Cannes Film Festival, his expertise is ever-evolving and cements his position as a leading figure in nightlife and entertainment hosting.
St. Barths, or Bais de Saint Jean in Saint Barthelemy, is a popular Caribbean party hotspot year-round — and as a nightlife connoisseur, Dzienciol capitalized on this tropical draw for the first party of the year.
