Sort New Year’s Eve before it sorts itself

House party, harbour views or a weekend away? Plynr helps your crew decide, then keeps the plan, the costs and the countdown in one place.

Sound familiar?

Nobody can decide on the plan

Everyone has an idea, nobody commits, and suddenly it’s the 30th of December.

Tickets and costs to split

Events, houses and boats book out fast, and someone ends up fronting the money.

Who’s actually coming?

Numbers matter for bookings, but half the group is still a maybe.

How to plan it in Plynr

1

Vote on the plan

Send a Poll with a few ideas, from a house party to a weekend away. Everyone votes, and the winner updates your Plyn.

2

Send one Event Plyn

Add the location, timings, cost per person, dress code and a playlist. Friends RSVP in seconds via the app or on the web.

3

Keep the crew in the loop

Chat inside the Plyn, share updates about tickets and transport, and let reminders chase the maybes.

4

Relive it afterwards

Once the night’s over, it becomes a Past Plyn. Everyone adds their photos from the countdown, and you can keep private notes of the best moments.

When should you start planning New Year’s Eve?

Two to three months ahead is ideal. Popular venues, tickets and accommodation book out early, especially in the big cities.

A house party, a harbour or beach picnic, dinner with friends, a weekend away or a ticketed event. Put a few options in a Poll and let the group decide.

Agree on a cost per person early and add it to the invite. Collect money for anything booked upfront so nobody is left out of pocket.
