The Hard Rock Café chain of Rock 'n' Roll theme restaurants, with locations around the globe, is famous for their museum-like dedication to the history of the musical genre.
Each location features items donated and collected from Rock 'n' Roll, Blues, R&B, and other musical artists during the 20th century and beyond. However, the most remarkable Hard Rock Café is located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It is the only Hard Rock Café built in the shape of a pyramid and also features a one-of-a-kind lighted fountain.
Every New Year's Eve, the Hard Rock Café in Myrtle Beach hosts "Party at Hard Rock" to ring in the New Year. The party starts at 9 p.m. and lasts on until 2 a.m. Discount tickets are available for couples. Admission includes a balloon drop and champagne toast at midnight, hot and cold hors d'oeuvres, confetti canons, party favors, and a dessert and coffee station. It is one of many hot parties that take place in and around Myrtle Beach.
