MIDTOWN SOUTH — Early risers who find themselves near Herald Square on Wednesday morning may witness elves and reindeer escorting ugly sweater-clad guests to an undisclosed location.

Starting at 6 a.m., the “morning movement” known as DAYBREAKER will host its latest early-morning dance party inside a yet-to-be-revealed department store, complete with dancers dressed as dreidels, reindeer and elves.

The event will kick off with an aerobics workout and segue into a dance party that ends at 9 a.m., featuring music courtesy of DJ duo The Golden Pony.

But instead of typical evening fare likes hors d'oeuvre and alcoholic beverages, the party will provide guests with smoothies, protein shakes and other offerings to fuel the early-morning workout and dance session.

“It brings together great people, music and a vibrant energy before the work day begins,” a representative for DAYBREAKER said of the holiday-themed dance party.

Guests are encouraged to wear ugly holiday sweaters and gather at the Herald Square Clocktower at 6 a.m., where event coordinators dressed as elves and reindeer will guide them to the department store dance floor.

Tickets for the event are $20 for dance floor access and $30 for both dance and aerobics-class access, with 50 percent of the proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish foundation, DAYBREAKER said.
