Boston’s Biggest New Year’s Eve Party!

Since 1976, Boston’s First Night® has been a New Year’s Eve celebration of artistic performances and the beginning of a new year. In keeping with this fantastic Boston tradition, the First Night celebration will open 2025 with an array of performances.

Thanks to donations from area companies and individuals, First Night Boston is entirely free and open to all. No purchase is required to attend First Night events. It’s the biggest party in New England and we’re excited to welcome you in. Let the countdown begin!
