This year we’re allowed back on the dancefloor for New Year’s Eve after the last two previous celebrations were curtailed by the pandemic.
Some may be happy to stay home with the Hootenanny on TV and a glass of sherry, but for those desperate to party it’s time to dust off those dancing shoes and head into the city again to celebrate the new year in style.
There are plenty of options for seeing in 2023 in Cambridge, and we have picked some highlights.
