Top 5: Places to Spend the Biggest Bar Night of the Year

Normally we do a countdown of activities to help you plan for your next weekend adventures, but with Thanksgiving coming this week we thought we'd try to help you plan for the holiday in and around Birmingham.

. If you want to stick close to home, here are five suggestions:

• : Part of the Birmingham's Thanksgiving eve celebration goes Las Vegas with go-go dancers, show girls and a high-energy atmosphere.
• : The new Mexican restaurant in town will have 200+ kinds of tequila, a complimentary taco bar and Latin house salsa and merengue.
• : Chen Chow turns Hollywood on Wednesday night with red carpet style-glamour and glitz, plus special event photography.
• : This classic Irish pub is always a neighborhood favorite and Thanksgiving eve is no exception.
• : On Thanksgiving eve, South Bar will feature live music from Good Gravy Band as well as DJ in the club.
