Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like New Year’s Eve has a really unique kind of energy to it: champagne buzzed, slightly delusional, and fully convinced that you’re about to have the absolute best night of your life. Between the glitter, the countdown, and the unspoken rule that whatever happens after midnight is totally fair game, it’s a holiday built around anticipation and excitement — so why not bring that energy into the bedroom? I mean, if you’re already dressing up, staying out late, and leaning into the moment, why not celebrate with some New Year’s Eve sex positions too?
Whether you’re spending the night with a long-term partner, a situationship, or maybe you’re feeling spontaneous and ready to start your New Year with a new boo, NYE is the perfect excuse to shake things up and get spicy in the bedroom (or anywhere, TBH). Think of these New Year’s Eve sex positions as your sexy little vision board — fun, flirty, and designed to start the year off right.Â
As we all know, New Year’s resolutions exist, and who knows — maybe “have better sex” is on yours. At the end of the day, if you’re going to manifest anything in 2026, it might as well be orgasms that hit harder than the ball drop. Looking for some new sex positions to spice up your new year with? Don’t worry, bestie, I’ve got your back — here are four sex positions so you can ring in the new year with a bang (literally).Â
- New Year, New Position
-
Why not start off the New Year with a position you’ve def never tried before? Enter my personal fave for all my wannabe gymnasts: the headstand. In this position, the receiving partner goes into a headstand with their legs resting on the giving partner’s chest, as they penetrate from behind. This one’s guaranteed to get some blood flowing in all the right places, IYKWIM.
- The Ball Drop
-
The most anticipated part of New Year’s Eve: the ball drop. Sure, you can watch a ball drop and kiss someone — but why not drop onto something (or someone…) else? With this twist on a classic cowgirl position, the giving partner lies on their back while the receiving partner straddles, squatting on their feet. Now, bounce (or drop) like there’s no tomorrow!
- The Champagne Pop
-
Now, who doesn’t love some champagne on New Year’s Eve? With the receiving partner arched on all fours, the giving partner can kneel or stand behind and penetrate. And the faster y’all go, the louder pops you’ll have…
- After Party
-
TBH, there’s no better way to spend the rest of New Year’s Eve than by ending your night warm and cuddled up in bed after a long night out. At the after party, both you and your partner will be lying on your side, facing the same direction — picture a classic spooning position. Then, the giving partner penetrates from behind — guaranteed to make the after-party feel way hotter than the main event.
After all, there’s no better way to start the new year than with some wild sex that makes you wish the night would never end.
