WE'RE giving away a pair tickets to give away for the biggest New Year's Eve gig in town, the 15,000-capacity Ministry Of Sound party at the O2 Arena.

Producer of the moment Calvin Harris headlines, with his good pal Deadmau5 on the second row.

The party should be a fitting way for Harris to round off 2009 after his second album, Ready For The Weekend, reached No 1 in August and singles from it, I'm Not Alone and Ready For The Weekend went to Nos 1 and 5 respectively.

Harris also stormed the stage during The X Factor final to mock Jedward during one of their peformances with a pineapple on his head!

Also on the bill at the O2 are leading electronica stars Justice, Plump DJs, Dave Spoon, Example and special guest, DJ producer Eric Prydz.

A spokesman for the Ministry told the Recorder: "This event will offer revellers all-night entertainment with nine hours of music accompanying spectacular visuals created especially for the event.

"A unique production policy will transform the arena via multiple stages, breathtaking lighting, pyrotechnic displays and an aerial walkway that will see artists and entertainers performing along an LED-lit stage high above the crowd."

Basic tickets are �50 each, which restricts you to allocated seating. There's a "freeflow ticket", priced at �75, which gives you access to the lower bowl dancefloor and seating throughout the night.

But the daddy is the �190 VIP ticket, which gives you access to the chill-out lounge/backstage bar area, a glass of champagne at midnight, a Ministry goodie bag including limited edition CD and T-shirt and a special tag which gives you and a friend free entry to the Ministry of Sound club in Elephant & Castle for life. Doors to the party are 9pm - 6am.
