Holiday Decor at UP on the Roof Anderson

Christmas & New Year’s in Anderson

Holiday Hours

Your Holiday Plans Are Looking UP!

Christmas Eve dinner without a sink full of dishes. New Year’s Eve with dinner and a soundtrack. And January 1 plans that include football on the TVs plus great food and drinks to start the new year.

Head UP for the holidays in downtown Anderson, where Christmas cocktails, festive get-togethers and a musical send-off to 2026 keep the good times going. Bring the family for Christmas Eve dining, gather your friends for drinks or slip away for a little holiday downtime. Even Santa takes an occasional cookie cocktail break.

For New Year’s Eve book a dinner table and let the evening unfold. We’re ringing in 2027 with live music, festive fun and our regular dinner menu. No party ticket or cover charge required to countdown to 2027 on the best rooftop in Anderson. Run it back on New Year’s Day for football, food and drinks. There’s plenty of time to become a whole new person on January 2. Or skip the resolutions this year – life’s complicated enough without all that.
