Are you dreaming of ringing in New Year’s Eve 2025 in Marrakech? This red city never disappoints when it comes to unforgettable celebrations—Marrakech is definitely the best place to party in Morocco. As always, I’ve prepared a carefully curated list of the best venues and events across the city to suit every taste and budget.
Interestingly, Morocco recognizes three New Year traditions: the Islamic New Year, the Amazigh (Berber) New Year, and the Western New Year. But don’t worry—it’s not as complicated as it sounds! For instance, the Islamic New Year, or Hijri, follows the lunar calendar and is marked as a significant religious holiday. The Islamic New Year in 2025 in Morocco will begin the evening of Wed, Jun 25, 2025. I noticed that not many Moroccans celebrate this or don’t make it a huge deal like the Western Gregorian calendar celebration. The Amazigh New Year, also known as Yennayer will be celebrated on January 12, 2025.
Yet, it’s the Western New Year’s Eve on December 31st that steals the show in Marrakech. While it’s more popular among the younger generation, inspired by tourism and global influences, it’s becoming a beloved tradition even for locals. From grand festivities to intimate gatherings, Marrakech offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity to start your year with a spark.
However, don’t wait for the fireworks, local people greeting each other in the streets, or public partying—especially in more traditional neighbourhoods.

Entrepotes is a lounge, bar and tapas restaurant with good vibes, setting, and music. My favourite part of Entrepotes is the inside garden. If you book in advance, ask to have a place there.
