New Year Celebration in Jim Corbett: Ring in 2027 in the Clouds
Looking for a New Year celebration in Mukteshwar that feels different from another crowded city party? This year, swap the traffic and noise for cold mountain air, a crackling bonfire and a sky full of stars at Digantaa Resort, Mukteshwar.
Our New Year Celebration 2026-27 runs from 30 December 2026 to 2 January 2027. It gives you two nights of celebration, a DJ night with cake cutting, a live music and bonfire evening, festive starters, mocktails and IMFL cocktails, and breakfast and dinner every day, so there is nothing extra to plan.
Digantaa sits at 7,500 feet in the Kumaon Himalayas, in Vill Kaul, Dhanachuli, close to Mukteshwar. Whether you are a couple, a family or a group of friends, this is the New Year celebration in Mukteshwar you will still be talking about next December.
Why Mukteshwar Is Perfect for a New Year Celebration
Mukteshwar is a quiet, high-altitude corner of Kumaon, and it is gaining fans among travellers who would rather skip the usual hill-station rush. Here is why it works so well for New Year:
- Winter at its sharpest: Late December brings crisp air, clear starry nights and cold evenings that are made for bonfires and warm drinks.
- Nature at your door: Wake up to birdsong, orchards, forest and snow-capped views instead of honking horns.
- Room to breathe: A resort New Year means open space, mountain terraces and no queues, which is ideal for families with children.
- A real mountain feel: At 7,500 feet, the views, the silence and the cold feel like a proper escape from city life.
- Easy to plan: Kathgodam railway station and Pantnagar airport are the usual gateways, and Delhi is an overnight-free drive away. Details are in the "How to reach" section below.
A quick, honest note: it gets very cold in late December, and snowfall is possible but never guaranteed. Pack warm, and treat any snow as a bonus.

Two nights of New Year celebration at Digantaa
Every evening is planned, so all you have to do is show up and celebrate.
30 December: DJ Night
Arrive, settle into your cottage and ease into holiday mode. In the evening, the celebrations kick off with a DJ night and a special New Year cake cutting. Starters are 2 vegetarian and 2 non-vegetarian, with mocktails and IMFL cocktails, followed by dinner. It is high-energy but relaxed, so you can dance one minute and chat with your group the next.
31 December: Live Music and Bonfire Night
This is the night you came for. Live music plays under the stars and a bonfire glows at the centre of the evening. The spread grows to 3 vegetarian and 3 non-vegetarian starters, with mocktails, IMFL cocktails and dinner. As midnight gets closer, the mountain cold fades around the fire and 2027 arrives in the best possible way.
1 January: A slow first morning
No alarm needed. Start the year with breakfast and a hot cup of chai on the terrace, watch the light spread over the peaks and take a long, quiet walk through the resort. Staying on? Use the day to unwind at the spa or explore Mukteshwar (see below).
Celebration inclusions are served as per the scheduled programme.
