Here's to 2021: with correspondents dispatched across the globe, we close our guide to the year ahead with a martini in Hong Kong and a toast to happier times.

To compile our 50 ways to hit play in 2021, we sent our correspondents all over the world. But the simple joy of pulling up a chair in a favoured bar or restaurant is universal. Our Hong Kong bureau chief James Chambers was able to do just that at Carlyle & Co, where he kicked back with a martini. In that spirit, we’d like to finish by toasting all our readers and wishing you plenty of happiness in the year ahead.
