Away with youngest who is having her 21st birthday. We are chilling in the hotel with cocktails, I want to go to sleep but she has just come out shower and “getting started”. She has said it’s fine I go to bed but I’ve tried falling asleep and she is in the bath with her music singing away. AIBU to tell her to turn it off? It’s her birthday so I don’t know.

Op can't help she's tired can she Hmm it's not the end of the world if she goes to sleep only 2 hours before her birthday ends. I wouldn't be enjoying myself and I doubt I'd be good company if I was shattered but only staying up because I felt I had to.

OP said her DD is singing away to herself in the bath. Why on earth should she have to stay up if DD is in the bath? Surely it's unfair making her sit outside and wait for ages while DD is in the bath, just so she isn't an 'old misery' Hmm

If she wants you to stay up could you make a coffee and then have another drink and if she’s happy you aren’t just let her enjoy it ! There will
Be more coffee and plenty of alcohol available tomorrow if that’s the main night!

Could you have a coke, that would perk you up a bit?

As pm suggested,offer at least to watch a movie and have some chocolate/drink together in the room.

Come on, OP! What age are you, in your 40s? You're too young to go to bed at 10 pm! Get down to that bar with her.

Think you should go behind the door and sing happy birthday to her
