Turning twenty-one marks not just a milestone but the last big, exciting party before stepping into full-fledged adulthood. Along with planning the celebrations, it’s a good idea to start an emergency fund as a responsible move towards your growing responsibilities. This birthday is definitely the time to go all out and enjoy your newly-legal drinking privileges. To make your 21st unforgettable (once the haze of the drinks clears), consider flying to one of these thrilling cities that appeal to both new and seasoned drinkers.
New York City, often called the Big Apple, feels like it was designed for a drinking adventure. The city’s public transportation system, especially around Manhattan and its neighboring boroughs, is incredibly convenient with trains arriving every five minutes during peak times. With over 2,600 bars, pubs, and taverns, NYC offers endless options for your celebration. A 21st birthday in “the city that never sleeps” promises to be lively, loud, and liberating.
