Party with the stars this New Year’s Eve.

A bevy of celebs are ringing in 2014 by hosting and performing at open-to-the-public bashes around the Big Apple.

Two big names in music, Macklemore and the Swedish pop duo Icona Pop, are performing in Times Square as well as appearing at swanky soirees elsewhere in the city

Macklemore is hosting a party at Meatpacking District hotspot the Dream Downtown ($175 and up, dreamdowntownnye.com), while Icona Pop’s Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt are slated to play at The Top of the Standard’s ($250, standardhotels.com) black-tie affair, which will feature high-end fare such as champagne-poached oysters.

A host of reality stars are making NYE appearances as well.

Less than a month before they tie the knot on ABC, “Bachelor” Sean Lowe and fiance Catherine Giudici are hosting a bowling bash at Bowlmor Times Square ($65 and up, joonbug.com), just a stone’s throw away from the Times Square hooplah. “Jersey Shore” star Vinny Guadagnino is again hosting the festivities at AMC 34th Street ($55 and up, joonbug.com), which will be transformed from a movie theater into a full-on dance club for the evening.
