The music, the dancing and a New Year. It was celebration time for New Year party folk with Platinum, the Live Abba Tribute Band and Beatlemania – The Ultimate Beatles Act performing at the Cinnamon Grand, high voltage bands and dancers and fireworks spectacular at other five-star hotels –the Hilton Colombo, the Kingsbury, the Galle Face Hotel, the Galadari, the Mount Lavinia Hotel and a little way off at the Jetwing Blue & Sea in Negombo and the Grand Kandyan up in the hills that the Sunday Times photographers visited as 2017 rolled in.
