Hi everyone,
I´m looking for some fun and cozy atmosphere during the NYE in Mérida, Yucatán. Any recommendation? My friends and I are looking for a good place with fabulous dinner, live music and young and nice people. If someone has a smart tip, would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Get a copy of Yucatan today or go on line to read it and make your selection as to what suits you best.
Yucatan Today is a good resource. Here's a decent-looking list of options, as well:

I have never been in Mérida during NYE, but I have been there before ane it's probably one of my favourite Mexican cities. I'm more than sure that the locals will do or have already something incredible for that night.
You can see some activities here, as previously recommended, at Yucatán Today
Hey. I'm back... I looked around because I wanted to see how things where done in Mérida with NYE and I found out that usually locals tend to be very private about the celebration. They always with their families, light up some fireworks and dance a bit. No thee won't be a major public event as I thought People
Sorry...
As I thought People from Mérida might do.
Also, most big hotels and restaurants will offer the party/dinner plan for that night. With the full traditional meal, drinks, music, dancing... But I heard very good thing about a hotel named Rosas y Xocolate. Apparently they serve amazing NYE food and host an awesome celebration. You can email them and ask about this
Not entirely true. A lot of people go to the Plaza Grande; a lot of tourists (Mexican and international) come to the city during holiday time and they are also looking for something to do. We had visitors a couple of years ago and while I stayed home they went out and danced in the Plaza Grande. I don't think it was anything officially organized but there were a lot of people, apparently.
Ref_traveller. That's amazing. I knew that my cool Mérida locals wouldn't miss that chance to do something nice for NYE. I admit that I thought that maybe it was a more official, organizer event but it's good nonetheless.
If I were you I would get some good good at a restaurant drink a bit and then go for one of those plaza events to have some local fun.
