Restaurants will require booking - TBH in the more traditional restaurants, the NYE menu is normally a rip off, as you get a glass of less-than-premium champagne in the deal, but pay a premium price.
As its the biggest night of the year for revenue, they will do 2 sittings so expect to be hurried along if you're on the early shift.
Often the special menu is oysters ( yes, Morzine is famously near the sea ), foie gras, filet mignon etc...
But nothing to stop you booking a table and just eating from the normal menu.
You can normally book during the days beforehand, but do ask what the menu options are, as some will only offer the NYE menu.
You'll be able to drink in all the bars till at least midnight though some popular ones may well be be ticket only ( Dixie, Tibetan, Rhodos, Beanies, Robbo etc.. ) again check when you get here.
The torchlit descent and fireworks are normally earlier in the evening so that families can enjoy them too, but I believe this year there'll be a DJ in the main square to see in the new year : https://en.morzine-avoriaz.com/agenda-dance-floor-with-dj-nico-de-carli-4891732.html?origine_affinage=true&mid=4&action=result&origine_affinage=true
At other events in the main square (Harley days) there's normally a beer tent or 2, so just send the 18 year old to get the beers for their younger sibling.

Fireworks are early evening so watch them with a drink at Tremplin and then go down to Clin D’Oeil - by far the nicest owners/ team. You can drop Christelle a message on facebook and she will let you know the set up.

+1 for the Clin d'Oeil. Many a memorable meal and knees up down there over the years. I can also vouch for the oyster phenomenon - I was once presented with half a basket of Bretagne oysters by the neighbour of a friend I was staying with in Essert Romand one Christmas, and very nice they were too!

The oysters always baffled me, especially when you see big trucks selling them on the side of the road… but it is legit albeit not my choice of celebratory scoff
