New Year’s Eve

Ring in the new year and rock out the old with Lynyrd Skynyrd and thousands of your closest friends at Nashville’s New Year’s Eve party on Lower Broadway. Bring your party hats. Make some noise. Count down to the fireworks and midnight “Music Drop®”!

——————————-

The FREE downtown street party starts at 7:00 on New Year’s Eve. So, come out and celebrate like only Music City knows how!  Lynyrd Skynyrd will headline this year’s event with feature performances from Edens Edge, THE FARM and Jeffrey Steele!

——————————-

And we’re dropping a 15-foot-tall red music note to kick off the new year. The “Music Drop®” will descend 115 feet to trigger a fireworks display and major confetti cannons at the stroke of midnight!

Get ready for the Toast & Boast! Check us out on Facebook and post your pictures! We’ll be posting some of our own. We’ll do a mass picture toast at points throughout the night. Raise your cameras, take a picture and post it on our Facebook page – Toast & Boast to your friends! facebook.com/nashvillemusiccity
