New Year’s Fest is an all-ages performing arts festival that takes place on New Year's Eve in Downtown Kalamazoo. The event begins at 6:00 p.m. and runs until 12 a.m. to ring in the New Year. The event features bands, comedians, magicians, ventriloquists, jugglers, and even super heroes and princesses. And, to top it off at midnight there is a ball drop and fireworks. It's indeed a celebration. The event features about 17 performances that are repeated throughout the night for a total of 70+ shows. Performances are scheduled for 4-30 minute or 3-45 minute performances that rotate throughout the night. This allows attendees to schedule their attendance based on when they can/want to attend within their time frame. So, that means that you can come for a couple of shows, one show, or try to schedule to see up to 5 shows.
The 2024 New Year's Fest will host performances in 5 indoor performance locations, 1 heated tents, and live music from Bronson Park Stage. You need an admission button to attend the shows in the performance spaces. The admission button is $8 in advance, and $12 in Bronson Park starting at 5:00 p.m. The outdoor live stage, fireworks, and ball drop are all free. So is participating and riding the Holly Jolly Trolley (that runs from 6:00-11:00 pm).
