Here are some of the highlights from the calendar for this weekend (Thursday–Sunday). Remember: More info on these—and the full calendar—is here.

••• Beatles tribute band the Fab Faux is playing City Winery on Thursday. It’s sold out but for the VIP seats.

••• If you don’t like to go out on New Year’s Eve but are still itching for a party, check out the Bubble Lounge’s long-running Tiny Bubbles party on Thursday night, with Johnny Dynell spinning. (Takes me back to my Jackie 60 days!) The door is free, and there’s burlesque at 11 p.m.

••• As for New Year’s Eve, Bubble Lounge and 92YTribeca are having parties, and Los Lobos is playing City Winery. I’m a conscientious objector to the holiday, but from what I can tell, most restaurants—including Macao Trading Co., Duane Park, and Tribeca Grill—are having special parties with set menus and entertainment. (Many are also serving à la carte earlier in the evening.)

••• Joseph Arthur and Jolie Holland are playing City Winery on New Year’s Day.

••• Of course, there’s a bunch of interesting ongoing stuff, too—such as Cheryl Hazan Gallery’s “10th annual Red Show” (themed to the color, not Commies), up through January 17. Pictured below: David Moore’s “Red Pulse I,” adapted into the show’s poster.
